A method of cheating would be to run a wire with a diode to prevent feedback from the starter motor (or the solenoid) to the coil. It would give you full cranking voltage (engine hot or cold). Just remember which way to place the diode if you are running positive or negative ground.

This would also work for the poor chevs as well, although you will want to use a good insulated wire to resist the rot of all the leaking oil.
