Mystery wires
I found a 1975 Vette chilling in a barn out in the country here in East Texas. It sat for 10 years. Got it dirt cheap. I had to replace tires, master cylinder, front calipers, and a new battery. Cleaned it up and spun out in the driveway a couple times, super cool ride. I charged the AC and its leaking from the back of the compressor, blower motor feels like its going out, tach doesn't work, needs a driver side window motor, and new vacuum lines on the lights. Other than that, It seems super solid. There are these wires up by the dash however that I unraveled. does anyone know off the top of their head what they are? I also checked the numbers on the block (thanks to Alan 71) and learned that it is the matching 350 that came in it. I've include some pictures of the car.

Nice looking car. looks like some engine mods and a new hood were added. Order an AIM and wiring schematic through one of the forum vendors and start tracing down what wires should be there, where they go and what was added by the prior owner. Good luck.

Looks like the high blower relay orange wire to me. I know the top picture say's 1976 but its the same.
