Efi v6 to carbed 350.

I'm in the process of pulling the motor out of my car and I was wanting to rid of my computer all together, Iv got the bulkhead out of the passenger side kickpanel and the computer wiring in the engine bay but I'm not seeing where the computer harness separates from the rest of the wiring, do I have to cut the wires out? I'm starting to second guess removing the wiring and thinking about just keeping the wiring along and putting the connectors I don't use into the loom or something but I want a cleaner engine bay look. Help

They dont just unplug, you have to cut and rework the harness, or get a complete new one.
