A non-technical LT1 wiring question

Are all of the posted LT1 wiring diagrams and explanations for those who have had their LT1 harnesses cut in the removal process? I have come across a decent LT1, 4l60e, fuel tank, virgin harnesses and processor for a pretty reasonable price. The problem is i work full time and go to college, I understand that some wiring fabrication will be involved but i am mostly trying to avoid major wiring nightmares. Or am i totally off track? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The wiring is not a nightmare...there is plenty of information posted here that will make this go easy enough with just a little though and a lot of reading. If you don't feel like rewiring the harness then go with a Painless or Speartech if they are still around. You will still have to think a little and read a lot but it should be considerably easier.
