Re: got an hei needs some help lol
I just did this install on my 62, it went pretty well. I used a 12 guage wire from the original firewall connector, whick is linked to the fuse panal. I used a multi meter to make sure it got 12volts at all times. My truck originally had a ballast resistor, but some have a resistor wire, so make sure you don't use the original wire! I think you can run from either the battery or the ignition, I don't think you need both.... but this was my first install (BTW, this made such an improvment in driveability!!)

Re: got an hei needs some help lol
That sounds good. I like finding spots that area little more inconspicuos the direct from the battery. I cut into a stock connector that hooked up to the firewall... not too bad looking.
