There are 3 on the starter. 2 by the starter motor and 1 by the solenoid.

have fun with the top bolt, that thing is a mother f&%*#$. have plenty of beer and make sure there are no little kids around to hear all the cuss words that will come out of your mouth. Have plenty of extensions and a couple of swivels.
