Re-wiring 3rd gen

Hey guys, i am in need of some wiring help. The car i bought had started to be re-wired...it is a carbed 350...originally TBI 305... (92 RS)

Anyway, the guy ripped ALL of the wiring out...ALL of it...computer, harnesses ect...

I have a complete wiring harness for the car (fuse panel, some factory looking connectors, etc..)

My question is, will this new harness get me by? It has everything written on the wires (headlights, turn signals [L/R], brake lights, reverse lights, power windows, fuel pump, alternator, coil, etc...)

Do i need any of the stock wires? By that i mean, do i need any of the wires that originally went to the distributor, sensors on the motor, etc... I'm really hoping i didn't step into a nightmare...

Any help is appreciated...thanks a lot!

Here is a pic..>SORRY FOR THE SIZE!

They make your post hard to read, and that kind of resolution is not necessary to show what you need to show.

Wow. You have your work cut out for you.

You said you have a complete wiring harness. What kind is it? The original one from the car? Aftermarket? Salvage from another F-body.

Basically, you will need everything that was in the original harness, except for the things that were either sensors read by the ecm, or devices controlled by the ecm. You will need wires to the distributor/ignition system, and the only sensors on the motor you will need are the ones for the gauges (oil press, coolant temp). Depending on what kind of carb you have, you may need an electric choke hookup.

Good Luck!!
