This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

Master kill switch with remote starter solenoid. Anybody done this?

    I could use some pics if somebody has set this up and how they mounted everything.

    Battery is in trunk on our 72 Skylark. I have purchased the MAD electrical battery relocation stuff, and remote starter solenoid. To be NHRA legal, I also have to have the master cut off for the electrical/alternator, and I purchased the Moroso unit for that with the arm so I can remove it for street driving.

    I'm going from the battery to the master cutoff, then short run to the remote solenoid, then to the starter. And put a terminal block in the trunk, firewall and support. Buying a 94 amp alternator, and changing that out too.

    Does this all sound right? Any advice?

    I would like some more pics of how anybody has mounted their kill switches or remote solenoid.

    Thanks.

    Thanks. I had seen David's set up, and that is the only one I've seen. He has the alternator cut off shown in the pic.
    The other article was helpful also.

    I'll post what I get put together.

    The bat cable goes to the remote sol. from there it goes to a power strip where all the new toys are getting power. the stock lights and stuff are still getting power from the original location. Hit the master kill and everything goes dead. The alt is powering the bat, if you shut the bat off all goes off.
