We ran a 2 litre on bike carbs and simply used an ESC module to control the ignition from a poverty spec Escort. Worked quite well up until we got the MegaJolt in place

as above take the engine wiring off a escort or fiesta 1.3 hcs engine
it connects to the cps,edis module, coil pack, etc and just plugs into the car loom with just 3 wires
very easy to do
