Default Electric issues

Hello Everybody,
this is my first post here so excuse me if there is any lack of information
i am currently resorting a 1990 Jaguar XJS, i have conducted a engine swap using a vortec engine from a 2002 Chevy Taho,
the original V12 engine caught fire and all the wiring got burnt to a crisp.
i am having a very hard time trying to arrange all the electric wiring from the vortec wire braid to the jaguar system,
has any one else ran into similar problems?
or has anyone else preformed the vortec swap and has any guides or advice on how to go about the wiring?
also if anyone knows a good car electrician in the south Florida area that they can recommend that would be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance.

I'm not sure how south, south is, but I would call Jeremy (I think that's right) at Paul's Jaguar (quick Google search) and he might be able to point you in some directions for an auto electrician... Best of luck. I would love to see some photos, btw...

Jaguar motorsports is in Delray Beach. It's an independent jaguar repair shop.

Are there some specific circuits that have you stumped? Or the whole thing?

Cheers
