Battery Relocation Wiring

I'm starting to begin the wiring process on my battery relocation project.

So far I plan to run 2/0 guage cable from the battery - to the kill switch - to the starter. Then run a 6 guage cable from the starter to a distribution block to run to switches for guages ect.

My question comes here; How do i route the power coming from the alternator so it will still charge the battery, AND so when the kill switch is thrown, the car dies?

run wire from the alternator back to the switch( rear of car) on the side that would be turned off...ie. would be connected to the battery + side.
