Default 2007 Z06-- Kill Switch Installation

I am looking for any learnings I can get regarding installation of a Kill Switch into a 2007 Corvette Z06. We have built out a 2007 Z06 for racing in NASA and SCCA and when we installed the Kill Switch into the car, we seem to have the computer going crazy with the kill switch and turning the lights on and off while driving and sending message displays indicating Service the Charging System, Service ABS, High Voltage on Battery and then the computer resets and clears the messages and then starts again. Anyone have any recommendations or experience with installling a Kill Switch in the 2007 Z06? Thanks in advance for any advice or insight you may share?

Have you thought about just wiring it into the fuel pump ground wire located by the rear left tire?

You need to catch the alternator wire where it connects to the starter and connect to kill switch, then back to starter
