1.1 fiesta bosch dizzy wiring

I have got hold of one of these electronic dizzy jobs with the black amplifyer bolted on the side. It was from an old fiesta from the scrappers and I want to fit it to my 750mc locost Xflow engine. I cannot figure how to connect it up. I have some of the loom that was stripped from the car at the scrappers.

The plug that goes into the amplifyer unit has 3 connections. Blue (which turns into black halfway down the loom and splits into 3 wires assume one if for a rev counter), Green and Brown. The Blue (black) lead was defo connected to the coil - on the fiesta, but somebody had already cut the other 2 leads and dont want to get it wrong and blow the amplifyer.

The Brown wire bells out to one of the connections on the internal coil in the Dizzy. Not sure where the green one goes. I therefore assume that brown would be to Earth and the green one a 12+v feed to the amp pack? the wires look a bit thin, would the green wire need a ballast??

If anybody can help, I'd be very grateful...
Many thanks
Carl

somebody beat me to it

I did the same conversion on my crossflow and it made the tickover and acceleration much better
