If you are talking about the starter solonoid if like all the classic Chev V8s they were on the starter motor. Chase down the pos battery cable and that's it. I did find a problem with the newer V8 on a 2000 that was the neg cable connection to the engine?? In that case nothing electric worked. That was a one year old Chev truck with no miles and full warranty but not worth towing it just to tighten a bolt (it was not registered at the time). - T
