For this some pictures would be really helpful, but from what I can remember there is a two wire harness for the clutch safety switch (you probably won't need to mess with that, just remember not to start the car while it's in gear!) and also the two wire harness for the brake light switch. You should also have a vacuum tube for the brakes too. I think that is it?

Also you have to wire in the neutral safety switch. Non 5 speed cars have it on the harness too. You plug it into the tranny. Also you need to hook up the reverse light switch, also on the tranny. I went to a wrecking yard and got the small harness that connects to the tranny off a 5 speed. Make sure you just go ahead and take the dash out, I did and it made my life easier. The driveshaft was the same length also. Make sure you have good u joints and a good rear seal in the tranny while you're at it. I had to do it afterward. 25 dollars total. Good luck =)

I guess that will take care of it? I've even heard you can use the auto computer with no problems. But I went n got a 5 speed a9l anyway when I did my swap. Then I went carbed

the auto computer in stock for will work but will cause driveability issues due to pulling timing when the car would normally upshift.

If you paid attention to what he was asking you would realize that in the other thread he is asking about the wiring on the TRANSMISSION and in this thread he is asking about the wiring on the BRAKE AND CLUTCH PEDAL ASSEMBLY.
