Actually, you'll be MUCH better off running power in to the big spade lugs
on the PCB that are used for the +5V test points. There's a lot of voltage
drop across a Pole Position boardset and the edge connectors were barely up
for the job when they were new...

I ran power in on the test points on my machine and power it from an old PC
power supply and use a car audio amp for sound. Hasn't failed on me in ~8-9
years.

Look through Goole. This has been covered a few times as well as links to
the documentation.

Here's a walk-through provided by StarTech Journals for free. I used
this on my Pole Position and it worked great.
