Maybe a wire to the choke and fuel shutoff solenoid on the carb.

How are you going to start it? Possibly a starter connection and solenoid wire?

I would wire up the oil pressure light as well to be sure !

That should be it!

Did You say roll start??

well just connect power to the coil...
and electromagnetic cutoff valve if You have one on Your carby.. otherwise No fuel...

Auto Choke... May need it to start engine easy....

You can turn it off later by loosening 3 screws and turning the choke unit - clockwise [until the choke flap opens]...

Auto Choke will be ON if its NOT connected to Power +..

connecting auto choke to power & it will warm up and switch itself off... so to start & run for a few minutes don't worry about it...
