Default Going carbed 5.3 in a 91 Mustang??wiring and fuel lines?

I picked up a 2004 5.3 complete motor for my 91 Mustang. My car now has a 2.3 turbo motor in it and a 5 speed. Im wanting to run the 5.3 with a carb and a 350 or 400 turbo tranny. Rear is already a 8.8 with 4.10s.

My question is, what wiring do I leave in the car and what do I remove? I plan on using the MSd to run coils. Also what do I do with the fuel lines and factory pump?

Mine has no wiring or fuel plumbing. So, all new territory and I'll just do my own thing.

I can tell you a guy that drives a coupe with a 5.3, all motor carbed went 11.4x in the 1/4 and on a 275 shot went 9.6x in the quarter. Don't know the build details but 11s all day on motor of the combo is right and weight is low.
