well what do you mean? its kinda hard to answer a question thats so vague. i mean as long as you have a means of starting it. Air, Fuel, Spark, and compression your motor will run. you can cut out all your interior, you can bypass vatts. you dont need an alternator, you dont need driving lights or anything. if your looking to just make it run then you can chop out half your wiring harness. how much of a race car do you want this to be?

honestly man. i would just put the car back to the way it is. if you are gonna drive it pretty often there is nothing really worth taking off honestly. i mean hell when it comes down to it theres really not much on the motor that you can take off. remove the smog and the a/c and thats really it. unless you wanna switch to a manual rack and pinion and get rid of your power steering. and changed your intake over to a Single plane and slap a regular HEI or MSD Dizzy on there and get rid of the opti. but unless you throw in a carbed motor and rewire it. you need pretty much everything cause of the fact of how computer controlled the car is. like the vatts controls eveyrthing. unless you bypass it like i did in my 3rd gen.

gm controller pack... $264, set of coils... used anywhere from 50-130, new for 240-300
a few sensors and thats it.. You dont need the whole EFI setup with the gm controller pack. This is the easiest and chepaest way to run a LS in a non Ls car

I've deleted over 10 lbs of wires in my car. No ac, heat, power steering, abs, cruise control, egr / air, all the wiring for the airbags / hvac stripped out. No rear speakers or wire. Just wires for my tail lights. Front speakers only. It's more a matter of what you want to keep than how much you can get rid of.
