Default Motor Install Question On Starter Wiring

Hello all,

I hope someone can help. We are dropping my new motor in and there is a small black wire (whipe stripe)that comes out of the crank position sensor/knock sensor harness. It is a heat wrapped harness. Does the black wire go on to the starter or is it a ground of some sort?

Thanks

It's a ground wire and here's what it looks like when installed:

Thank you my man! I believe when I searched you asked the question last year and no one could answer your question.

No problem and yeah, that was me earlier this year. I just finished doing another LS7 swap this weekend so let me know if you have any other questions.
