if you pulled the stock carb then the only wires on the pass side you need is the ones for the wipers

the wiper wires go through the firewall and that side. And you should be able to get your hand up in there

MOST OF THOSE WIRES RUN TO THE ECU MOUNTED ON THE PASS FRONT KICK PANEL, YOU COULD PULL THE HARNESS OFF THE ECU, PULL THE HARNESS INTO THE ENGINE BAY BY REMOVING THE FIREWALL GROMMET, AND EASILY SEE WHAT WIRES RUN TO WHAT, KEEP THE ONES YOU NEED, & PASS IT BACK THRU THE FIREWALL INSTALL GROMMET, GOOD TO GO!
