Default EFI to carb guys

Those who swapped from EFI to carb, did you get rid of the main engine harness completely or did you keep it?(the one the comp plugged into) And what plugs did you still use if you did???

to all you guys who use the tfi dizzy with a carb set up, don't ask why your car is a turd!!!!!!!!!!!! you can't and shouldn't use such ..why??? you'll only get mech advance..= half of what you should have, you won't have total advance since you don't have a vac advance on it

I found the wiring diagrams I needed for my ignition so really all I need is to find that one power wire from the ignition to run my box.
Anyone know a good wire to run the ignition box off of on a 91-93 body?????
