Default Ford ecu wiring

Hi people, I got myself a mk6 escort xr3i 1.8 16v to rip the engine out and stick in my old for Anglia. Does anybody possibly have a writing diagram, or could tell me what I need to get the engine running, I'm keeping all the injection etc as it is for the moment, just literally swapping everything from the escort to my 100e, I've been told all I need to do is put a live feed to my ecu and that should be it but as its my first engine I've worked on with an ecu I don't have a clue, so is it true I just have to put a live to the ecu or is there alot more to it than that? Cheers Tom,

You can loose some of the wiring. Ie lamba, carbon canister etc.
But it isn't as easy as 1 wire.
Think you'll need to wire 5-6 wires up for it to run at minimum. Few lives, permanent and off ignition via relays. Couple of earths, and a trigger wire for the fuel pump.
It's not rocket science though.
Sorry I ain't got a diagram off hand.

Thanks mate, I've literally just took all the wiring out of the escort so I'll have to try and work out what wires go where. The lamba sensor being took out wont effect performance then?
