After talking to MSD for the 5th year in a row, we got hold of a different tech.
Will see....

From the trans brake switch

That is not legal in super stock. The rule says that there can't be a splice in the transbrake wiring. The wire must go directly from the switch to the 2 step and the transbrake.

As stated above it's not legal if that is an issue. Then I wonder what the theory is of using a relay. The 2 step obviously doesn't use much power. Generally controlling the transbrake solenoid with a relay isn't done or needed. Don't see what good a relay is going to do. Still think you have a bad connection somewhere.
