Wot in heck is this guy feeding you - you need 1 NEW style solenoid mounted wherever you want it, no harness just wires. The Ford starter itself does not have a built in solenoid - only GM cars are built that way. Does he think you have a Chevy engine like 90% of the rest? People just don't like to think outside the GM box.

It is snowing and blowing and about 18 degrees - too freakin' cold for this time of year. What global warming?

I'm so bummed....I just wrote you a big long post and lost the damn thing somehow....so here we go with the re-write....

Now, LOL...check out this link for this starter.....it claims to have the solenoid attached. The guy knows I have a Ford in a Ford. So......back to my original question...don't shoot me.....if this new starter truly has a solenoid on it, would I still need the old one on the firewall (or wherever I put it)? Of course, if it's not really a solenoid on the new one, then all of this is a moot point! LOL

I got my headers from Sanderson today. When I ordered them, I spoke to the owner about your concerns regarding welding residue, etc. She assured me that wouldn't happen so I took a chance on their ceramic coating.....I didn't really have time to shop around to get them coated somewhere else, etc.
Anyway, the coating looks good and the insides are smooth and clean, however the guy must of been on crack when drilling one of the bolt holes on the passenger side header! Check it out....I called them and they said they'd send me a new one...LOL....nothing is ever easy is it??!!
