Well, you certainly don’t need a kill circuit, and from the looks of your diagram, the 57 models did not have one. No problem, the engine can be stopped by just retarding the throttle, or activating the electric choke. Not having the kill circuit will make it easier to use a red plug wiring harness. There will be a ground that comes up to the key switch, but it doesn’t have to be used, or connected to the key switch. The black/yellow stop lead wouldn’t be used either…. I’m assuming your engine does not have a generator like the diagram shows. A generator will probably require the junction box to house the regulator and extra wiring….
