Its been a long time since I did any wiring on my car, but I think I had the same problem or something similar to your problem due to a voltage drop (About 8 volts -vs- 12+). I believe it was caused by a factory resistor that reduces your ignition voltage down for stock applications. I was installing HEI and it needed a full 12 volts to even start. Is there a posibility that your power lead is running through one of these resistors?
Good luck, I know electrical work can be a nightmare, but one of these guys on the list can definitely pull you through.
