Info on fan relay, fuel pump relays.

There was a post (i think it was here) that had said something like "if you connect these wires to 12v constant, these to 12v switched, your car will start on the first try" Im looking for that post. It also had information about connecting your fuel pump relay and fan relays... The reason im looking for it , is because it said something about connecting grounds to certain relays, instead of power? Im a little confused, if anyone remembers the post can they send me the link? Ive looked for hours lol.

I know what your talking about but dont know were the post is. This is what my father in law did with my 92 rs 305 tbi. We swapped in a 385 and with the fuel relay we use one wire grounded to turn it on and with the fans we used a different one to have them on all the time.
