[TR] Connecting red wire on Pertronix

[Joe Curry]

I am pretty sure that you need to run the red wire to switched 12 V.  That
can be done to any 12v source that is controlled by the ignition switch.  It
is easy to determine by connecting a probe light or Volt meter to the oil
pressure switch (or any other point you want to test) and turn on the
ignition.  If the probe light illuminates or you get a 12 V. reading on your
meter, that should work.

     I need to hook the red wire of my pertonix to a full 12 volt 
source.  Any problem with connecting to the bottom connector on y oil 
pressure switch?  Seems like a convenient spot close to the Dizzy 
without having to drape a wire across to the fuse box.  Thanks  John
