Thanks to Tom Hetrick of 3R Restorations for sending me this information via email. In Tom's own words and photos:

As we discussed last week, I had to dig an original starter relay and mounting bracket out of my stash to donate to a customers V7 Sport project. I was able to purchase the diode board, voltage regulator, and distribution block from the usual suppliers, but the original starter relay and mounting bracket seemed to be unobtainium. Also, while the placement and hookup of most of the components was explained by the available wiring diagram and by your sites installation instructions, the starter relay connections took some noodling. Hopefully, the attached photos will benefit someone attempting this install for the first time.
