black is ground blue is power.. .however... please run a relay young nick.
-first run all positive and negative wires together in series
-ground black wire to chassis
-by 75amp fuse and follow diagram to connect.
-run switch to power wire and run it inside of car.

not exactly, although in terms of off and on, a spst relay could be considered off-on. a spdt relay however would be more like on-on since there is always a closed circuit, it just alternates.

he doesn't need to alternate, i'm just saying that a spdt relay operates more along those lines than the off-on-off or on-off-on example you gave.
anyways, it's time for another shameless plug so here's my write up.

the purpose for the relay also young nick is so that Current is alternating and not just straight draining from your battery. when i hooked my fan up without the relay, my voltage would drop from about 13.9 down to about 13.4-5... with the relay it would dip quickly and go back up and stay up.
