I can sketch you up a diagram, mine has Chryslers in it. The difference will be most likely at the starter, the GM engines use a starter solenoid/switch at the starter where Chryslers use a starter switch and only a bendix in the starter. One battery goes to the Onan and the others go to each of the power engines. Does your boat still have a crossover box, that may be what gives you grief? BTW hello from Texas I see you are a neighbor in Arkansas.

Thank you Larry! A sketch would no doubt be very helpful.
Crossover box ? Boat has one battery box between the engines and just forward of generator. There is a solenoid in the battery box that apparently switches power between batteries if emergency toggle switch is actuated.

send me a PM with your e-mail and I will send you a scan of the actual wiring diagram from my 1983 10 meter express.
Should do the trick.
