Bill,
Connecting the ballast bypass to the same terminal as the  starter means that 
there will be a constant voltage being fed to the starter  whenever the 
ignition switch is on. It will be less than 12 volts due to  having been through 
the resister first. Maybe a diode installed to allow  current to flow only one 
way?

Forest,
 
OOPS! You are so right.
 
Thanks for catching that.
 
The Longacre starter 3 terminal solenoid should only be  used on cars which 
do not need a ballast resistance bypass when starting the  engine.
 
Sorry about that. Brain in neutral problem.
