DEREK G 92 RS

I have a 92 camaro rs, it has been converted from v6 to carb v8. Had small engine fire, need help on were to start my rebuild. I know my carb, radiator, altenator, and all plastic parts need replaced. wiring to lights were burnt. Need some help on ways to get it right this time. I bought the car and had fire not long after. I will have help from time to time but this will be my first major project.

FIRST THING - find out what caused the fire! It's not from a poorly run sub wire is it? I see people running sub wires poorly all the time, and I'm always thinking - there's another parts car I can get in a few months! (the first parts car I ever bought was from this - had sub wires running though the door, when door closed, pinched wire, until it shorted, caused the battery to explode, and the fire melted everything under the hood, including the carburator!)
