Can someone please post a pic of their functioning B+ terminal on the firewall of the 94' 530i?

I have just replaced my engine and with everything working on the panel, I am certain I haven't remembered the correct orientation of the starter and alternator wiring on the B+ terminals. In addition to the large gauge battery wire for both starter and alternator as well as battery, i have the 4 smaller wires one of which goes on to a "hot" battery post, but the other three are making me crazy. I have the wiring diagrams for my 12/93 production date as well as the 7 series with the M60 engine, but I'm drawing a blank "brainfart!"

After the electrical fiasco during my 6 speed conversion,

I took a few pictures of the area getting ready to move the drive train to a 94 530it again after my daughter wrecked the 540i. Here they are.

Thanks yaofeng. I did follow your electrical fiasco thread, and felt your pain! So sorry to hear that your 540 was lost. I have had the greatest pleasures from driving my 530 and from all accounts the 540 must be that much nicer.

I'll close off this thread, perhaps later today, after I have had some time to look at the pics, my Mitchell Repair Info wiring diagram (which I find a bit more palatable than the euro diagram) and my own installation. I'm one key turn away from starting the engine following the "Nikasil villan change" It occurred at 266,000 Kms.
