Help with where parts go under hood(88' tpi)
Hello there, it's been along time since I've posted here.
I have just finished the repairs to my 88' iroc that were caused by someone crashing into the front of it a few years ago. During the repair I removed the engine to refresh it a little (threw in an LT1 cam, hooker headers, painted it) but I took so long getting around to putting the engine back in that I have forgotten where some parts go. I have spent a long time searching through here and even random Google searches but all the pictures I find aren't much help.
Locations that I need:
Negative cable end. I know it can go anywhere on the block, but I'd like to place it where it belongs.
Routing for the power steering pump pressure hose. I got a new one, it matches the old one in length, but no way that I bolt it makes any sense. A picture would help here.
All those wires around the battery-how are they situated? I have them all plugged up, but it looks like an ugly spider's nest.
Charcoal canister-I just want a good picture of that whole area so I can know where to place the small hoses and where those wires hide at.
Lastly, there's a long evap hose on the passenger side that runs the length of the block. End to end, what does this attach to?
Pictures of these areas would most likely answer my questions completely. Thank you very much to anyone for helping me.

I've got an 87 IROC. I don't know what the differences would be but I'll send you some pics. What's your email address?
