Your wiring is not right.
Are you familiar with wire gauge current limits? 18 gauge is not safe to provide power to the solenoid. The switch at 60 AMPS is though. I would replace all your wiring with heavier primary wiring.
Also, you never answered many of my questions. Fused? You are asking for a car fire if you have high current running un-fused. You also have no mention of the heavy gauge (4 ga?) from the fuse box to the starter. Is that in place?
