Mini starter connections

When I took a mini-starter from a Dodge truck, I took the whole cable to the battery, plus the cable which runs across the timing cover to the alternator. I put in my Dart, though the starter wire is a bit long. It also has several ground cables, which I ran to engine, body and radiator support, like they do in the trucks. I might move it to my 65 Chrysler when I go to a mini on it.
