Default hook up MSD
Do you guys hook power up to auxillary sources, such as MSD, or a window switch, to the battery, or to the solenoid on the fender?

solonoid is a cleaner install but you have to take into consideration the size and condition of the positve lead from the battery to the solonoid.

you dont mean aux power as key on do you?

i coulda swore MSD made a wiring kit that all you did was plug everything in then use a special harnes to plug into power & ignition. I could be wrong tho.

No, I mean just to hook up items for power such as an msd box (just for example) Can you get power off solenoid?
