The lamp harness had all the wiring for the lamps and whatever else had power on the radiator support. Sometimes the alternator would be in this harness if the harness passed close by it.
So, make the LS harness sit on the engine nicely like you already are, but include some extra wires that enter and exist in certain spots for other functions? For example, wires for oil and coolant temp gauges or a wire for the alternator idiot light.
