This is about the best site I have found for DIY fuel injection systems.

To run the ecu you would need to convert the rotary spark generator to become the crank position sensor, install a separate ignition system to make the spark instead, fit a fuel pump and replace the carb for a throttle body (replaces the carb and has the fuel injector installed in it)...you would have to do the tuning yourself to get the spark in the right time and then build a fuel map to deliver the right amount of fuel at the right revs and engine load.. I to am looking into this and thinking a single cylinder motorbike efi might be easier to convert and cheaper too

"when we assume weake am ass out of you note" You realythink efi is the only thing?

"adapting" You obviously are very clueless making it sound so dramatic. Theres no adapting to be done for one thing. It's finding a way to drive it which is simple.

heard of a 555 injector system, for fixed speed (more or less) 1 cyl

A speeduino might be over the top but may be worth a look
