Gages, no effect, don't go through the computer.
Ignition, yes. With the factory distributor, that is.
There are numerous posts about what it takes to go computerless. Shouldn't take long for you to find some of them here, and on the Motor Swap forum. Some of them even have the good reasons not to do it.
One of our advertisers with a button on the top of the page could likely come up with a good replacement harness for you.
