You don't. Your ancient carb system isn't compatible with a computer. You will need an old style mechanical/vacuum advance distributor which pretty well nixes any computer engine management. That sounds like a decent engine. Why not leave the existing F.A.S.T. injection on the new engine and keep the technology within the last few decades?

RACE ON!!!
