This is a picture of what I am given to believe is a reversing switch on the starter. It looks like is has been taken apart/bypassed, and used as a ground. It has a wire attached to the firewall, and the other wires on the right side go to the distributor. What do I do with this contraption when I convert to 12 volts??

Going by Bill's short words of wisdom I would have to say tug on it. LOL
