I have a 1960 Fastwin tiller that was converted to electric. The solenoid is mounted to the right rear of the lower cowl pan and two heavy cables come out of the lower cowl pan on the right side, near the shift lever pivot. A waterproof momentary contact switch is mounted in a new hole in the front panel, and a kill switch is in the place where your motor has the multiple connector. Manual choke. I use a jump-start unit for a battery. It’s light and portable. You don’t need a big battery. Just another approach, perhaps not as elegant as Ben’s.
