Default 1998 explorer 5.0 computer wiring

We are placing this engine in a "snore" bronco. We need to know how to wire this computer. What to use and what not to use.

Overhead Valve engine? As in Fox Mustangs? Do not use Fox computer unless some problems are acceptable with ABS, automatic transmission (manual OK), fuel vapor management system, and smog pump system.

I've done such swaps in Mavericks, Toyota pickup, vintage Mustangs, '79 Ranchero, etc. '95 5.0 Mustangs came with AODE trans instead of AOD. Use of AOD works. Such Fox 5.0 engines were sold by Ford brand new in the late '90s from stockpiles of thousands never used in the new cars. CEL will aggravate but not affect performance
