Hi Jack.

Just pulled a 2.5L outa my brothers S10 so am somewhat familiar.

You need the 165 ecm along with a calpak for a 2.5L auto or stick whatever.

Use a HEI module from a large cap ECM controlled distributer and hook 
your magnetic trigger to the input. The ECM interfaces to one plug and
the Coil hooks up the the other. I believe some of the later 22r use
a magnetic trigger.

The ECM uses a coolant temp sensor, a manifold air temp sensor and a MAP sensor
all easy add ons along with the TPS and IAC on the TBI. 

Anyways sounds easy. Never does turn out that way. Took us a month
to do the one week S10 L98 swap.
