Default converting erst to efi frst management?

how hard is this i have a series 1 turbo cabby, in the near future i want to run an efi zvh bottom end with my frst head inlet etc and i also have an OFAB frst ecu/loom and all sensors/ and a nice superchip lol how much work is involved in fitting this engine loom to the car loom?

any info or guides out there?

cheers J

I look at it like im putting a zetec bottom end in my fiesta turbo, thats all relatively simple and ive understood that BUT

i now wish to put it in an escort rs turbo (engine will be zetec bottom end frst head and inlet etc) so i believe i would have to get a new feul pump, and obvioulsy overcome joining the efi engine loom somehow but i dont know how.

Right i think i mudled you all up a bit lol forget the zvh bit that just confuses it, what i mean is basically i want to run a frst engine and management set up but in an escort. so what needs changing in terms of joining the loom to the car and what feul pump etc
