i am not near the car , i need to know what wire is a key on hot , from the column
i am mounting the msd box under the dash and need the ignition wire for it,

Pink/black wire is a switched source, but I'd run a relay for the box.

thanks
i shouldn't need a relay , it is only for a signal , i don't believe there is any amperage draw on it

 

[Doober]

Oh, in that case you're right

Just connect to the Red wire at the distributor.....
