Default Need help 5.3 swapping a 87 Camaro Wiring troubles

Does anyone know what I need to use on the third Gen Camaro’s harness or can I throw away everything from it and just use the 5.3 harness and computer

I threw everything away on my 70 El Camino related to its original wiring harness. Your 87 Camaro is pre-OBD anything and I can't imagine there's anything worth keeping. For me, that old stuff just got in the way.
