Default Info and help needed on zetec conversion wiring and inlet!

Just picked myself up a solid xr2 in pretty good condition apart from the engine!

Its running a 1.8 zetec and has been bodged into place. There is wiring everywhere with things not plugged in, and also the car doesnt run. Has to be revved otherwise when revs drop it cuts out.

Things I need to know;

What is engine and inlet manifold out of?
Am I able to run the inlet on a zetec in an xr2 engine bay? Its on injection ..
Best/Easiest plan of attack?

There is wires everywhere and I don't even know where too start, im not interested in power or tuning it, I just want to get it running!

Pics;



Thanks in advance

With that exhaust & inlet manifold I'd take a punt that the engines out of a mk6 escort either a Gti or an si.
