Re: 3 speed overdrive with an HEI distributor

OK.. Overdive is working now with push/pull cable and pull out/light up switch.. I'm functioning as the governor, engager and kickdown switch with just that one pull out switch and it works fine.. I am, however, getting ready to add all the proper wiring..

Has it been determined that connectiing the Kick Down switch to the 'Tach" tab on the HEI works safely or is breaking the feed wire to the HEI the better way to go?

I also like the idea of not energizing the electrical system of the overdrive when not in use.. It seems to me that a double pole, double throw switch could take care of that with the hot and ground out wires run to their own terminals. When flipped one way, it would break both wires and when flipped the other, connect them back to themselves..
