Electronic Ign/Hei/Ballast Delete Wiring?

That is how it should be wired, and I hate to complicate this but MANY of these cars have a voltage drop problem which AFFECTS the voltage regulator, causing the battery to run "high."

In other words to the OP................It would be wise to consider using the two bulhead wires to trigger a relay, fused off the starter relay, and use that relay to feed your ignition, VR, and alternator field.

Okay, that is making sense in my head. If the VR isn't seeing the true battery voltage, and is seeing something lower than the actual battery voltage it would try to overcharge the battery. Do i have that right?

I like the idea of a relay running everything at full power and may well revisit that idea in the future. This car is destined to get an efi 360 magnum which will require a new wiring harness under the hood. I also kept the power distribution box from the donor truck which has lots of relays available for whatever. But that is getting off topic!
