Just get 12v to the starter, then a switched 12v supply to the START terminal and another switch to the coil. Don't forget the temp and oil pressure too.

Let me know if this will work:
positive from battery to fuse
fuse to toggle switch(on/off)
toggle to start on starter
from start to positive on coil
Grounded from back of engine to negative on battery.
starter button from S to R on starter
??????????

the two starter button wires will so from 1. the main lug connection from the battery positive terminal to 2. the "S" stud marked "S" (closest to the engine on most GM solenoids)

Be better to get a regular start button and run from the battery + either at the battery or the battery terminal at the starter.
