I totally agree with Charlie.

I have never liked the idea of a big fat " hot all the time" cable running from rear to front.
Once you have one short on you, you'll understand....ask me how I know. lol

Obviously this will not work on a Stocker, but this is how I have wired all my bracket cars for years ( not any of my Stockers tho)

The rear main power switch kills the engine and all power to the car immediately, but never handles the starter current:
