Default WTH do these wires go?

I've got all the wires accounted for except the two orange ones in the middle of the pic:

Those are your ground wires that go on the post on the other side of your block pictured right at the very back of the fire wall make sure you have 2 on one and one small one on the other, they are a few inches apart
I can shoot you a pic if need be

That's right. I know this, because when I unscrewed the nut off the top of one, it fell out of the socket and dropped down the hole on the top of the clutch housing.

Michelle, seeing your thread makes me think of all of the ones I will be starting as soon as I start reassembly!!!

Make sure you cover the bellhousing holes before trying to put those on. More than likely you will drop a nut or bolt (i cant remember which they use).

The freakin alt cable bot is the way ..
Look at the bottom left of the freakin black cable there is a small
stud that is where the smallest of the wires go (there are 3 in total)
then right behind the black cable up a few inches and to the right is the bigger one with the lock nut on it
That takes the battery cable I believe and one smaller ground
If you need a better pic let me know and I will shoot one

Or...you can play it safe and bolt them to the intake manifold where the reference sensor bracket mounts.

Here they are before I cleaned them. Sand off the conectors and mounting points before re-installing, and don't try to start the motor without them (you can fry the DME). I believe there is a third wire (big) that sits under the upper bolt in the picture.
