I've never seen a fuse on any HEI equipped trucks, they just have a wire strait from the ignition switch to the distributor. The HEI doesn't draw many amps, but it does need a full 12V to it. On the trucks that I converted to HEI, I just used one of the "IGN-UNFUSED" terminals in the fuse block and they worked great. You can put a relay if you like, but I really don't think it's necessary. I've seen guys that even used the resistor wire for the point distributor to run an HEI and never had a problem so they can't draw that much power. Best of luck.
