If I remember correctly only two wires are required for starter operation. The large battery cable and the smaller "switch" wire which goes to the outside solenoid terminal. Depending on the car there may be a ten gauge wire on the battery post to supply power to the rest of the car. That wire came directly from the battery on later model ('70 and up?) B bodies. It's been a very long time and my memory is a bit (okay, a LOT) fuzzy on that point.
