Default Having trouble with new setup

I recently replaced the intake manifold, carburator, and distributor. The original carb was a 2 barrel rochester with a vaccum choke and the new one is a holley 650 with an electric choke, where do I run the new wire? I also purchased a new accell distributor and I'm having a difficult time finding where I'm supposed to plug in the wire harness from the distributor. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The wire from the electric choke needs to be wired to an ignition circuit. Power to it only when the key is in the run position. You can use the exciter circuit from the alternator.

The distributor power(red wire) can come from the same wire that you connect the choke to. The brown wire goes to the negative side of the coil (the terminal should be marked "-"). Black goes to engine ground.
