Removing excess wires from engine with carb.

OK - I searched the 2nd gen postings and found a little information on my project. I want to remove all unnecessary wires from the engine wiring harness. It's looking like I might be able to remove the whole thing and just add back a few instead. I compared with a friend's car of the same year, but stock, and labeled what each connector went to. The particulars for my car are:
It is a 91 chassis - N/A coupe
I have a rebuilt 88 N/A engine
I am using the Racing Beat Holley carb and header exhaust
There are no emissions ( solinoids, hoses, air pump, EGR, etc )
I am using an 85 electronic ignition Dizzy from a GSL
I have wired it for 3 J109 igniters to a DILDFIS system (Jeff20b)
What I will do is either remove the whole harness and rebuild a smaller one or strip the exsisting harness back to the firewall. I need to know which wires/connectors are needed in my case. If anyone has pictures of a similar remake please post them. Thanks for as much info as you can supply to help me reduce this under hood clutter.

i think the only thing that is on that harness that you need to worry about is the oil pressure sender, and windshield wiper harness. i think thats it if your going carb
