Re: 3 speed overdrive with an HEI distributor

Yeah, I think that will be a bit of a challenge to make it work. I'm probably going to just add a relay into the power wire that opens when the kickdown switch is pressed.

My truck had an OD in it from the factory I think, because it has the relay still bolted on the fender and the lockout cable in the dash. I got another relay with the trans I got, so do you think I could use that for the power wire to the HEI? Not sure if that will work, but it would look a lot better than a new, plastic relay
