The wiring should all plug in somewhere, lol. After that, you can start narrowing down the things you won't need, like wipers/washers and air conditioning.

I got the wiring down to just the wiring and relays I need to run the motor. I did rework the main fuse box, so all fuses will be in one place and added a relay to take the load off my ignition switch. Next I will add wires for my extra gauges and tape it up, back into a harness.

I just replaced the timing belt, front seal, water pump and the valve cover vacuum hose. It sounds good and runs smooth, the only odd thing is the idle is now higher. It when from 1000 to 1300 when I was done and the idle screw is out of adjustment I still need to check the timing. Is this normal?
here is a video of it running.
