During the winter I did a number of things to the GTO including removing the engine and completely rewiring the engine bay, cleaning up all the holes in the firewall; running new elec fuel pump with 1/2 inch lines, pulled lower dash apart to replace heater core and replaced heater fan. While I was doing this I fixed the high speed fan operation as well.

With all this said, everything worked electrically, charging properly, etc. Without the car running I can turn the ignition to the on position, hei -fuel pump- choke -elec fans all fire up (all of these run off of one ignition "on" lead that energizes relays to feed them). Without starting the car, turn ign. off and everything turns off properly.

Problem is when I start the car I can not turn it off without pulling the connector on top of the alternator. What I suspect is going on is there's enough juice passing through the alternator "idiot" light lead and somehow cross connecting to the ignition lead I'm using to energize the relays. So even when I turn the ignition switch off power is still energizing the ignition lead that energizes all the relays. When the ignition is turned off and car is still running the "Gen" light is on but nothing else works, ie: turn signals for example that require ignition on.

It's a 69 GTO, any thoughts would be appreciated.
