engine swap

I'm going in the opposite direction for most questions on swaps. I recently bought an 1987 chevy 305 tpi w/700r trans. all the wiring is dangling from the engine. I'm swapping it into a 1950 ford f1. Is there a book on the wiring I MUST KEEP and what I don't need to get it running. Thanks for any help I can get.

Re: engine swap

Gonna hafta spend weeks researching it, or buy a ready-made harness, Painless Wiring offers them, or sell the TPI to buy a carb, or go LSx. TPI hasn't been the hot ticket retrofit for nearly 20 years now.
