It depends on what electrics the new engine will have, and what year you are
transplanting it in to.  As far as the latter it could be as simple as two
wires to the alternator and one to the coil.  Earlier MGBs had dynamos, remote
sensing alternators, and multi-wire alternators. Later models had electric
temp gauge, manifold heater, ballasted ignition and electronic ignition all of
which involve extra wires from the body to the engine.

  I am in need of a general purpose automotive electrical guide / wiring
guide.  Any suggestions?

  I am transplanting a 3.4l v6 into my MGB and just need to make sure I am
"doing it all correctly" as far as electrical.
