Default C4 running rough

I just got my convertible 87 C4 back from the shop they did a lot of work but I have a new L 98 long block installed today I changed out the fuses in my car It was running fine as I was on my way home then it started to kind of run very rough and on the left-hand side it was smoking a little bit could it be a wire short or wite harness problem or a wore leaning on aomething hot and starting to burn ? And yes all the fuses are in the correct spots and the fuse reader lights up on all of them my dash cluster and courtesy are out atm while my new one comes in but the engine did not seem to be getting hotter than it should any help is appreciated

Why did you change all your fuses? What was the problem you were trying to solve? Dan

My radio stopped working and i checked the fuse and it was fine but i just had a set of new fuses that just looked a little cleaner but i am taking it back to the shop today i think this is a problem on their end based on the fact that it is a new l98 they put in
