My question is what modifications need to be made to the wiring harness to get the alternator to work and get a wire that is hot on ignition and run to hook to the new distrbutor Thanks

You should be able to use the feed side of the ballast resistor for your DUI setup, not sure how you would tie the 12v in start line into it short of using a diode to prevent back feed. They say there are no such thing as a stupid question. They say there is always the exception that proves the rule. Don't be the exception.
