I shot some pics of the engine compartment. Here is the history on the truck: the carburetor that the PO had on it backfired and caught the under hood insulation on fire. That in turn burned up some plugs and wires. In the pictures below you can see the damsge. Only a couple of fires were actually burnt all the way through and a couple of plugs/connectors were melted some. My question is, should I just replace the harness or fix what is wrong with this one?
Motor Shot

Wiring harness shot 1

wiring harness shot 2

Plug for??

Would like input either way and if you say replace it what company should I look in to? I have looked at Ez-Wiring and they seem to be the cheapest, are they good quality?
