A1C Neuhoff

Hi everyone and happy St. Patricks Day. I am new to this site i always come to this site to read other threads when i need info so i would like to finally get involved and i am in a bit of a situation, so i have a 96 Camaro set up for a 5 speed v6 that i bought as a roller, has everything besides the engine and transmission, i have a crashed 98 Z28 automatic, i want to have a manual set up in the 96 in which i am converting everything into. I believe i have everything covered besides the wiring. I am putting the ENTIRE wiring harness from headlights through firewall to taillights and everything in between into the 96 from the 98. I dont know how to splice the wires for everything to work correctly, well i know how to splice i just dont know which wires go where. I see other threads explaining it but i feel like an idiot reading it like dooiiii. Could someone please put it in laymans terms for me? Could i just buy an engine harness for a manual? Would it work and be easier? I have complete wiring of a 98 z28 automatic and a 96 base manual. I want the wiring from the 98 so i can have the complete 98 interior and power everything. Any help is greatly appreciated. Time is not of the essence. I got all the time in the world to work on this car especially if i can save money.
