Default How to deal with this excessive wireing!

Years ago I rewired my fuse Box and ECM under the bumper of my truck. Now I need to move it all for the twin Turbo intercooler. Biggest problem is German shepherd pups broke into my garage and chewed through a bunch of the harness so I have quite the mess to deal with. My truck is officially just a toy and I figure there has to be a bunch of useless wiring I can remove while I'm redoing all this again. Does anyone have any sources or ideas of how I can strip this harness down to the bare necessities truck does need to be street legal. A full and complete wiring diagram would be nice but I have found nothing complete enough for me to start pulling wires confidently. Any ideas or help will be appreciated. Thanks

LT1 swap is the goddamn best. Check out his YouTube page too, theres a trio of videos where he goes over an ENTIRE harness, super helpful.

When I did my build I ran into the same issue. My solution.....I tore out every single strand of wire and rewired the truck myself from bumper to bumper in a "modular" fasher. I made a harness solely dedicated to the chassis (lights,windows and things like that. Module two was for the efi system.
By the way, I've done several other trucks both drag and street using the same method. Looks slick as hell, trouble shooting easy, and simple to operate. I don it a side hustle. If you or anyone else is interested...hit me up for a quote.

I would be interested in a quote. Are you able to accomplish this without the truck? Seems like it may be difficult. Can you send me basic pics of how your truck wiring looks? Thanks
