"On the engine side of the AAW harness you can remove the:
alternator/regulator wires"
Are you saying I can remove the entire red wire going to the starter solenoid, and to the alternator? What will power the AAW fuse block? And the starter is controlled by the ignition and pcm correct?
Then what about the purple wire to the starter solenoid?

no problem. I have a system that seems to work.
No, not a waste. The AC on will bump the idle?
There is a wire that goes to the charge system for the light. Use everything else as prescribed. Yes, you use the purple wire. The starter and alternator Bat + wires up the same.
You want to leave the Red 10g wire to the battery. Fixed my list here.
On the engine side of the AAW harness you can remove the:
alternator/regulator wires 1 18g brown wire
ignition coil wires 14g pink
blower circuit wire (vintage air) 10g orange ** see note
tachometer wire 16g white wire
oil wire 18g blue wire
coolant temp 18g green wire

blower circuit wire (vintage air) 10g orange On this Orange 10g, I like to delete the engine side, pull it out of the firewall side of the bulk head, put a single GM (spare connectors and terminals from the AAW kit) and run it to the 10g Red to the Vintage air blower motor. I replace the 30amp fuse with a 30 amp ATO thermal relay. Remove the vintage air breaker from the system.
