s4 13b into 12a chassis (wiring)

i did a search and found nothing.
are there any writeups on the wiring part of doing this swap? i really would like to avoid going the carb route.

thanks

I am in the process of swapping a gsl-se 13b into a first gen. I do not have a write up, but in terms of general advice, here's my 2 cents:

MOST IMPORTANT: Get the engine wiring harness from the donor car. Have as much of the wiring that ends at the computer input as possible.

Once you have the engine harness, it is mostly just a mater of comparing wiring diagrams and hooking up things like clutch switches and gauges and the like.

Just have a little patience, and a little understanding of electrical diagrams, and you'll be o.k.
