You will need to get all the wiring diagrams for the donor vehicle to see what power, and ground wires you will need to hook up for each circuit, usually pink and black wires. You can just delete the stuff you don't use, gauges, A/C, ABS, airbag. All your engine sensor wires should just plug back up to where they came from.

I believe you will have to purchase a drive by wire gas pedal and replace your mechanical one to make it work.

You should contact Current Performance wiring. They did the harness and DBW for an LS2 that went in an 85 Vette for Corvette Enthusiast Magazine this year.

Very detailed article, shows all the parts required, close-up pictures, gauges/sending units, speedometer, tach.
