Might want to look at a wiring diagram for the computer you plan to run and make sure you have all the sensors.

Since you don't have a computer yet, i'd recommend running the 730 speed density computer used in the 90-92 cars. Several reason.
-Very common. It isn't just an f-body ECM, it was used in a lot of appliuations like corsicas and berettas. So it's relatively easy to find and low cost.
-no expensive MAF sensor to worry about going bad on you
-overall it's a smarter computer. Also, tuninjg a 730 is a lot more well understood and 'easier' than a MAF car.

At the bottom of http://www.diy-efi.org/gmecm/ecm_info/1227730/ are links to wiring diagrams to get an idea of what you'd need. Alas, i am too tired to really offer much more detailed help right now, but a search on '730 swap' or other phrases like that should give you a lot of great info.
