85 c10 305

Trying to figure out what’s what here. when I got the truck none of the sensors were connected at all. Only Vacuum hoses. I’d like the coolant and oil gauge to work. I know for sure ( I think) the oil pressure is in the rear next to the distributor and which one it is. (Bottom right in pic) But there are a couple of sensors in the thermostat housing, one in the side of the front driver side of the block, and another in the intake I assumed was the pcv. (Bottom left in pic) The new thermostat housing doesn’t come with connection ports built in and this is my first project, and I don’t have much knowledge, so I’m a little confused. Any input is appreciated, I was also told I didn’t need any of the crap but I wanna do the truck justice and make it run right also, not just do the bare minimum. I did delete the egr with the new manifold so I don’t have to deal with that. Wiring is a mess, that’s next on the list. New distributor and plug wires on the way. Just wanna get the holes plugged.

Hey yall, just picked up an 85 c10 Silverado to fix up. Wondering about header recommendation. Not trying to spend a fortune just needs replaced and looking for something that will do the job and hopefully install with little to no modification. 305 engine. Thanks
