Thanks for the idea. So as long as it's atleat 12 volts it does not matter where it it hooked up to? If thats the case to leave the harness alone what about a longer power wire to the alternator or the battery directly? What got me wondering is this from the instructions

"Reconnect the wire leading from the ignition switch to the distributor, and plug the pickup lead connector into the new distributor cap".

So does it have to be hooked up to the ignition switch?
