Welcome to the forum. The engine can be used with the injection system, but the inlet manifold ideally needs to be modified or will poke through the
bonnet.
I know the ecu and loom can be separated out but I don't know the details I'm afraid.
As some day it may happen that a victim must be found,
I've got a little list-- I've got a little list
Of society offenders who might well be underground,
And who never would be missed-- who never would be missed!

I don't know the engine at all, but can you use the injection system? Will it fit under the bonnet of a Locost?
Only asking as I know the Pinto one won't! 
Cheers,
James

Thanks for the replies.
IF it will not fit the only other option is carbs.This is an expensive option as an ecu must also be purchased and inlet manifold which I am hoping to
avoid

I just checked the engine and the injection systen is lower than the top of the engine .So if I can get the engine in hopfully I can keep the
injection.
Th ewiring is my weak spot though...
Also thanks for the welcome

Must be different to the Sierra DOHC EFI then. Well, you will certainly be able to get the engine in, so go for it.

I think i know the one your are on about.Is it the one that sweeps up from the head?
The one on my scorpio goes straight out .Hopfully width is not an issue...

Well, if you've got the book you will be able to work out how much width you will have.
