Getting ready to clean up and upgrade some the wiring [such as a larger positive cable per prior post] and I was wondering what to do with the ignition switch if anything. My truck has a 350 SBC that the previous owner appears to have installed a push switch on the dash to engage the starter. Didn't the trucks originally have a floor start switch? [at least that is what the assembly manual seems to indicate]

What should I be looking at with this push switch to assure I am not loosing any power and that it does not create any other electrical concerns?

Thanks.
