FYI:
If you have a high torque starter, it comes equiped with a starter solenoid. That would make the firewall mounted unit redundant...

Your firewall mounted solenoid should have on one side (a big cable) a line going back to the battery and on the other side (a big cable) a line going down to your starter. Your MSD unit should (or could) feed from the battery side of this starter solenoid, along with any other full-time big power users. (driving lights, etc) MSD can always stay hot, very small current draw when off...If you send me an email with your email address, I'll send you some schematics of a different starter hookups. I seem to remember this problem before, a backfeed of power, but I don't remember from where...hmmmmm...I'll have a think....UPDATE: Info sent.
