Trunk mounted battery

Why should I? I don't give a damn about the NHRA rule book for my street car.

Yep it's my attitude because you can't stay on point. Yep...

Neither one of those are a 2 pole switches. Good job. Again, not staying on point...

When those fail you are out $50+ each time. 2 pole and a CD cost less to start with and you replace one of them with a failure. Less $'s with a component replacement. He's got a 1 wire alt IIRC, so the exciter and all the other stuff is moot.

You have the same number of failure points in the switches you posted.

If the OP insists on using a self-exciting alternator then there are exactly two options to meet the NHRA rules. One is to run the charge wire to the battery side of the battery kill switch. The other is to use a constant duty solenoid, rated for at least the alt's max output. The Ford type of starter relay/solenoid is not constant duty and is not a good choice for this use at all.

So you decided to just muck up the thread and come back to what has been said from the very beginning or exactly what the OP's schematic displays. Nicely done! LOL

At least you got on point with that one. Good job.
