Electric Choke
 
I'm trying to add an electric choke on my 1966 Chevy c-10. The original fuse block is full because of other things I have added in the past. I'm trying to figure out how to get power to the choke with out space on the fuse panel. I'm giving some thought to adding a small fuse block for this. How have some of you overcome this type of situation? Help appreciated.

What I did on my 66 was us the wire from the ignition switch that was for the ignition and used it to drive a relay that ran the electronic ignition and the electric choke. The resister was was removed long ago when I put the engine in the truck so that was not an issue. I got the power for the relay from the horn relay and used it to power two relays. The ignition and the electric fuel pump. The fuel pump output power runs through an oil pressure switch to kill the pump on a loss of oil pressure.
