Default Wiring Question

Figured i would ask in here since some of you all may have done this before. I'll be running a sbc in my 1997 ws6 shell. Obviouly im not running any of the lt1 engine harness. Do any of you all have a diagram of how to rewire the car to power the interior? I can figure it out but i figured i would ask first to save some time. Thanks again, as always guys.

If you wanna do it simply just yank the computer and harness out and ur done. If you connect the battery back up you should still have power going to ur accessories

Yeah i was thinking that but i guess i need to still run the factory wires that came off the battery and ran to the started and alternator then. I was just plaaing on rewiring all that my own way since the battery was relocated now.

I cut out all of my factory wiring and bought a painless race car harness and rewired my car.

don't forget, one of the engine harness connectors just inside of the firewall behind the pass kick panel hold the fuel pump control and the alternator control. there are also a couple of wire in the 10 pin connector in the engine bay for the engine harness that hold some switch ing. sources, things you won't use anymore like injectors. it's alot easier then you think.
