Hello Joe.Back from the camping trip.Well the resister is a mil spec 5 ohm 50 watt capacity one from Allied Electronics (as in my post).It is fully encapsulated in aluminum housing and said to be environment proof (not sure about gas though).I just soldered 14 AG wires to both terminals. Put urethane fuel hose over the wires to protect them from gas.Drilled holes to plenum, passed through the wires and plugged the gap with JB Weld. 12V comes from head light. I already have a relay there so draw is not a problem and it is switched off while starter is turning the engine.As soon as I am ready, I will go out test ride (short one around the neighborhood first) and see how plenum temp goes.
