Dakota Starter. You remove the plastic black cover from the connections then 
unbolt the factory EXTENSION (yup there already is one on there) and then 
the stock original starter wires will hook up perfectly despite what you may 
think.  Works great. Even have one opn my slant 6 dragster, My max wedge car 
and my pals poly 318 fury with 2x4bbls
