So ive been working on this 83 k10 305/sm465/208 and im at a cross roads with the wiring to the starter pics below and i cant figure out where the bare ones wire to. Ones that are stripped include the wire from the alternator and the rest from the bulkhead the green wire is coming from the junction block if anyone could point me in the right direction thanks

More and better pics man. I'm having trouble figuring out which wire is which,which one is creating an illusion of being the same wire as the background of the pic.etc. Pic 742 the wire out of the 2 prong junction on the alternator, is that one of the ones in your hand?

This might help. I made this for someone else earlier today. It's a doctored up version of what Jgonick just shared. Plus the circuit number breakdowns.
