Agreed with all points above. I kept all my wires segregated with the wraps while labeling so I could identify from the diagrams which connectors were which based on location and nearest-neighbors. Then I stripped off the sheathing. I also did my own diet and have had no problems (so far), but it is a big task. I added probably way more extension wire than I needed because I didn't move the "rear" fuse box to the front until I realized it would be in the way of the firewall. Just keep chipping away at it, take breaks to work on other bits to keep moving, and you will get through it. There is an amazing amount of brainpower and experience here (and on NASIOC in a pinch) when it comes to this. As you can see from all the responses, someone's probably been there and is super willing to help!
