305 tpi to 350 carb. need help getting rid of unneeded wires and such

Hey guys I have a 89 Iroc that came with a 305tpi engine. I am swapping a 350 out a monte carlo with a 350 trans into it. I have a lot of wites hanging around in the engine bay. I wanted to see if some body could tell me exactly what I need and dont need. Ive looked in other posts but nothing really gave me a straight answer. Can somebody help?

From: Littleton, CO USA
Car: 82 Berlinetta/57 Bel Air
Engine: L92/LQ4 (both w/4" stroke)
Transmission: 4L80E/4L80E
Axle/Gears: 12B-3.73/9"-3.89
If this was my project, I wouldn't have any wires left over, because I would have only put the 350 longblock in place of the 305, and left everything else the same - including the transmission. But, it's not my project.

You need the wires to the distributor/coil, alternator, oil pressure gauge, temperature gauge sender (in the driver side head), choke thermostat (assuming carb w/electric choke), and the starter. The rest can be removed without cutting anything (except possibly electrical tape).
