Loose ends

I've had my 87 f body awhile now paid 300 bucks for it, its 2.8 had long since given up the ghost and was screaming for a v8, so that's what it got, a 71 307 I do believe, had rebuild bored 30 over I think been awhile, it was a 5 speed card and I wanted to keep it that way, what a pain that was.

But all that is said and done and here the card has now sit for two year, and I'm getting around to finishing it up, problem is I forgot where I was on it and this brings me to my first problem.

No head lights because the computer isn't pluged in under the dash, their are 3 plugs there but none of them fit, I remember pulling abunch of un needed wireing out past the passenger side fender, I'm guessing there was a cross over, any ideas whats missing

The computer and the head lights don't have anything to do with each other.

Check the large red wires that go to the starter terminal along with the positive battery cable. There should be two of those wires - make sure both are hooked up. If both are there, they have fuse-able links built into them - make sure they aren't blown.
