it can be tricky to wire up so that the kill switch turns the car off by killing the alternator power.

That will be fine as long as you aren't planning on doing any racing at a track with tech inspections, if you are then you will need a battery box with a vent tube that goes outside the car and a cutoff switch that is NHRA approved and has ON/OFF labels.
