Need help fixing hacked wiring - NOW WITH PICS

OK, this is for all you passenger side battery 305 TPI guys.

Does anyone have a detailed diagram, or can you take pictures and point out what wires go to what off the battery lines?

The previous owner cut alot of stuff out, and I need to try to sort this out.

Theres a few cut wires, and a weatherpack connector or two just sitting @ the battery tray.

OK, heres some pics from today.

First the Mass Air hack -

And @ the Harness


Aside from the wire b/t the two, is there anything else that is missing?

Next, found this weatherpack connector sitting in the battery tray, not hooked up. What does it go to?


Next, is what is bothering me most. There is a set of wires that are messed up that come off the positive battery cable.

In this picture, you can see the cable and the wires that come off it.


Here, you can see the wires in better detail-


Im guessing that there are 3 wires that shoot off of that. 1 looks like it was pulled off, the 2nd was cut, and the third acutally has a finished end. A description of what each wire is and/or what is suppose to go to would help!

Here, is the first wire that looks like it was just pulled off.


Heres the second wire, with the clean cut.



Here is the third wire, it is black with a red stripe and this finished end.



After speaking with Paul (ZPikePaul), he said that the cut wires off the positive cable are for the starter, starter selonoid, and the alternator?

Lastly, there are these two connectors.


Are they suppose to be connected like this?





Sorry about the crappy quality of some of the pics. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Yea, I got a few people to "say" that they'll come over and compare cars - you know how that works.

As always, if anyone can take a picture of those lines id appreicate it!

If I were you, I would buy a factory service manual from Helm, as it will have every wiring diagram you'll ever need. It's well worth it, trust me.
