Default Kill the beasts!

What would be the best way to wire in KILL switches? Im running MSD dist. and blaster coils. Ground the neg. side of coil or run the ignition hot wire thru the switch or maybe theres another way? Seems like it also would be safer to wire both switches to kill both motors but not sure that can be done and still keep each ignition system independent. Thanks

Default ignition kills

I wired my kill switch to a relay,that relay runs my fuel pump and 12v key power to my msd box.works great,i have heard it is not good to ground out an msd coil.
