Default Cossie engine loom v Twin cam engine loom

Ok i have been sorting out the wiring on my 2wd cossie loom and have hit a problem where the main loom links into the engine loom

I HAVE REMOVED THE STANDARD COSSIE WIRING LOOM AND IM USING A TWIN CAM LOOM

Ok on the cossie engine loom has these colours;
Black/Red, Black, Empty
Blue/Red, Empty, Empty,
Empty, Brown/White, Green .

On the Twin Cam loom has these colours;
Brown/White, Black, Green/Brown,
Red/Blue, Blue x2 wire, Empty,
Black, Brown/White, Green.

Should i just rewire the plug as i have a brandnew loom to fit for the engine side i know whot the colours are for on the cossie plug but not sure on whot some of them on the Twin cam loom are for

Can anyone help CheeRS

Ok on the cossie engine loom has these colours;
Black/Red fuel pump
Black switch ign
Empty
Blue/Red 12v+
Empty
Empty
Empty
Brown/White water temp gauge
Green rev counter

On the Twin Cam loom has these colours;
Brown/White poss water temp
Black switch ign
Green/Brown oil light
Red/Blue 12v+
Blue x2 wire batt light
Empty
Black switch ign
Brown/White poss water temp
Green rev counter

the twin cam loom has the batt light built into it with teh batt power cable as a cosy has it seperatly

the 2 temp gauge wires ( brown/white) then you will just have to find out whic one is what

other than that its straight forward bar one connects behind batt and the other behind dash

im a bit lost of what your trying to do
