Motorola has EVBs for the 68332.  You can also find data about the chip at
bode.ee.alberta.ca ( i hope that is correct ).  There is a port for a C
compiler available along with freeware assemblers.

The Motorola databook for this chip gives a sample of an engine 
management system, fuel injection, crank trigger, and ignition.  They 
don't give you any circuits but hint that it shoud be pretty simple.
