Steering Column Wires

I just put power steering on my 70 model truck, using a gear box and column from a 78 truck. It was an automatic columnm my 70 truck is manual in the floor. Just hoping someone could help me with the color matching of these wires. The 78 column has more wires than than the 70 truck. I could probably figure it out, but i would rather go to the dentist than fool with these wires. Thanks for any help its greatly appreciated.

Steering Column Wires

The Red/Blue wire goes to the transmission neutral safety switch

The Red/Green wire branches off to the : Coil,Starter Solenoid ( i connector).

Under the dash I think it also powers a Red/Yellow wire and a Blue wire.

Red/Yellow goes to Brake warning lamp >Oil pressure warning lamp

The Blue wire goes to the ignition module.

The Yellow wire turns into a Black/Yellow wire that goes to the Large starter solenoid Battery power connection
