Hot wire from positive battery terminal to primary terminal on each coil should suffice.
Don't leave it hooked up like this except while cranking or running the engine. Because it's the same as leaving an ignition switch left ON all the time.
As known, simply assuring voltage to a coil doesn't guarantee spark at plug tips. But is one of the many requirements for spark.
Good Fortune!
