Electrical schematic

Hi, I finished the engine rebuild, gt40 heads,headman headers, comp cam, edlebrock performer manifold with 600 4 bbl carb,
Took pictures before disassembly but computer crashed with the pics(of course no back up other than iPhone but the cloud ate them), got it running but unsure about some of the wiring, ex starter solonid , alternator
I was hoping someone has a diagram with color codes as I am stumped
I have a machine shop and am working on wiring up the opera lights with LED, will keep you posted

no car year mentioned, your profile says 83LS

so, you may be a duraspark system.. as in you **Dont** have a rectangular object on the side of the distributor called an igniton module and ,, your iginion module is mounted to the fire wall.

diy link below to help you out.. 83 is for wiring sorta blends backward to prior years of fords.

the closest match i have below in my diy links are the 84 complements of another member here Softtouch.
