The Msd box is a self contained unit so that is the only "computer" you will have. The only sensors it "needs" are cam and crank but you can also reuse the map as well. My motor is in a 240sx so I got rid of everything else. I put after market gauge sensors in the oil pressure and water temperature sensor locations and a wideband for o2 with one bung plugged. In general you can remove everything but cam and crank and it will run.
I would assume if you are putting it into a camaro/gto/vette etc with stock gauges you will want to keep the necessary sensors to keep the gauges working.
