Engine swap wiring questions?

I want to swap an IROC Motor, trans, harness and computer into a 305 carbed TA I'm planning to use the IROC computer. How do I mate this to the under dash harness in the TA?

Here is the missing wire under the dash that interface to the TPI engine harness.
This is assumeing that you are swapping from a carb to a MAF TPI.

Oh, and don't forget about the fuel pump, fuel lines, sensors and maybe VATS depending on the year engine wiring harness you get.

Yes I am going from a carb to MAF TPI setup, I have the complete motor and harness and computer so I should have all of the sensors. Correct? I know about the fuel lines and the fuel pump? The only thing that I don't have for a Firebird is the air intake being that it is different from the Camaro. Thanks for the reply, if you have any other information I'd appricate it. Thanks again
