Pretty much the only thing the computer controls is the engine. So your interior, brake, headlights, and such can be left alone. Im pretty sure gm just spliced into the cpu wiring to get info for the gauges.

Go to the Engine Swap Tech Board. They answer a lot of electrical questions on that board. Use the "search" function.
