Wiring an electric kill switch
Does anyone have experience wiring an external electrical kill switch on an '86 non-turbo race car? This switch has to kill the battery and ignition.
|
Can a Moderator move this to the racing section? I don't want to double post.

look on ebay for a battery cut-off switch. I had one on my old Street/Strip 82 Firebird with a 383
|
I know where to buy them, I want to know if anyone knows how to install it on an FC.
|
just make it cut off the power from the alternator. Look through the FSM to find the correct wire.
|
Thank you for the info that makes a lot more sense to me than having to wire it at the ignition.
Aren't there two and four wire switches? I would assume 2 being for just the battery cut off and the 4 for both? |

The two wire switches are generally used on cars running without an alternator (drag only vehicles). You would want to use a four-wire switch. This also means you have to run the alternator output wire to the back of the vehicle. |
