93’ 5.0 Swap no crank

Bought this truck a few months back probably put 10k miles on it no issues and love this little 5.0 ranger.

Parked it and went to crank it the next day and noticed a weird smell but drove it anyway. It sat overnight and when I went to crank it it wouldn’t do anything. Decided to hold the key down and smoke began to run out of the dash.

I’m assuming a wire is grounding out somewhere behind the dash. Any tips on the simplest way to track it down?
