ignition coil?

i'm building a homemade immobilizer, and i need to get to this:
The heavy-duty 12 volt relay should be mounted close to where you break the vital starting circuit. A number of different approaches can be used. In an older car, inserting the relay in the low tension ignition coil power feed will prevent the car starting
where's the best place to get at this power feed?

I dont have a wiring diagram for your specific year but pink seems to be the right wire on some of the older models.
