Unanswered: EFI wiring

Im in the middle of connecting the wire harness from my LE Jetronic injection system and I am looking for advice from those of you knowledgable about such things.

One wire I need to hook up is called out to be connected to an ignition key 'on' +12 source.

My question is what would be a good source location for this?

Thanks,Bob

not to be silly but "the ignition switch"

best to fit an otto start to cut the load down on cranking and then take a feed from ign position 2 this is the wire that feeds all the ign live wires and relays and will shut off when you remove the key but not have a fed if you are running the radio with the engine off ( ign pos 1 )

Thanks Baz,

Not a silly answer, sometimes the most obvious answer is easiest to miss.
I was thinking along a different line,perhaps splicing into another location under the hood.

Guess Ill do it the correct way, as you suggest.

12 volts

I use the wire for the choke. It supplies 12 volts with ignition on.

the later 75's have starter solenoid that has two prongs on it the best bet is to connect to the starter solenoid just like the factory did it
