LT1 wiring headache starts... now!

It doesn't seem like very many people go to the LTx/LSx board, and I know tons of people on TGO have done this swap... help please!

Many people who go to the LT1/LS1 forum have already done the swap, and go there to discuss ways to improve.

Such was the stated intent and purpose of the new forum. It says so right below the link you click to get to it.

This may be why you're not getting much action there, just a guess.

Doh! Well, in that case:

Mods, feel free to delete whichever thread you feel is in the wrong place. Thanks!

I've finally decided to get started on the wiring for my LT1 swap. Problem is, I don't even know where to begin. I have all of the things I need for the swap (I think), and I don't have the full underhood harness, just the engine harness. I've got all of the diagrams of my car and of most of the engine harness connectors for the LT1, but I don't really understand where to go from there. Am I supposed to match up the wires from the bulkhead connector to the connectors on my thirdgen? Which wires on my harness will I not need at all? Someone is probably going to tell me to search, but I've been reading through all of this stuff for about a month now and am still pretty stuck.
