I switched my 240 over the the pencil style plugs. All you have to do is put in the big body pencil style plugs and run a 10 gauge wire from the strip fuse to the first GP then put jumper wires to each of the next plugs and remove the ground wire to the block on the #1 cylinder and your set. It's that easy. No need for the newer style relay, unless you want the quick glow times.
