Entering an '83 hatch into a figure 8 race. Help me get this thing going asap!

I was given this little hatch after it had been stripped and almost ran in a demolition derby.

I need help with figuring out how to wire this thing the easiest way possible. Bare minimum, only the essentials to make it run. I think i understand most of what i need to do, but i need make sure i'm not missing something.

 

Everything has been stripped out of it including wiring. I know i have to provide power to the coil, the fan, the fuel pump and the starter solenoid. here are some questions i have. Feel free to add anything you think my be useful in making this work.

 

* Can i just run a hot wire to the + side of the coil and ground the negative side to the block as well as connecting the distributor to the coil? I will be putting a switch on the hot wire from the battery to the coil so i can cut power as needed.

 

* I just need to provide power to the starter solenoid through a momentary switch to make it turn over right?

 

* What do i need to do to get the alternator to work? I haven't even looked at it really to figure it out. I am going to go look at that next.

 

i have the fuel pump and fan figured out. I can't think of anything i missed, but i am sure there is something. I am running low on time, I have to get this running by tomorrow, so any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
