1999 larson escape 233 5.0gl

I am getting new long block ready, and have run across something i can not remember. transferring the wiring harness over to the new block, on the breaker panel there are three circuit breakers, while looking at the front of the motor, the rightmost breaker 50amp, i can not remember where the wire was attached, assuming power, but it doesnt reach the starter with ease, and the eyelet is too big to be properly installed on the back of the alternator, it is approx 10 gauge wire, red with black coating, goes to a large two pin plug, and new wire heads down to eyelet.

any clue where this thing goes? my guess would be starter, but it sits on the manifold pretty tight, maybe that is what the black coating over the red wire is for?

That's not it Bubba, he has an injected model. (see one of his other posts) once he posts the full model number we will know what he has.

Now I am going from memory (always dangerous) but I'm 99% certain the red lead on the 50 amp breaker still goes to the starter, yes?

That is why I ask for model and serial numbers. Then give him the PROPER information, and wiring diagram.
Year means nothing, and there was a few models that were Gli, not even sure which model years those were available.
