If you already have the E2SE electronic Varijet carb with the ECM, it shouldn't 
be difficult at all.  The ECM externally looks just like the TBI ECM and the 
wiring harness appears to be very similar.  You will already have the unheated 
oxygen sensor too.  You will need the manifold and throttle body and a suitable 
low pressure fuel pump and of course the ECM.  You might want to try to re-use 
the wiring harness if you can read the wiring diagram and confirm the circuity.  
At any rate a replacement (TBI) wiring harness will fit easily where you are 
removing the present one.

If you don't have the electronic carburetor, ignore all of the above because I 
am not familiar with that setup.

 I owned an 80 Spirit with the Duke and rebuilt that engine and became very 
familiar with the ECM and wiring before I got it running right.   My problem in 
getting it running correctly turned out to be a bad engine ground.  The wiring 
diagram was a hybrid of the GM diagram for the ECM and the AMC diagram.  It was 
hard for me to read.   Maybe a smarter person could have made it happen quicker, 
but I sure had problems.

How difficult is it to do a TBI conversion of the 2.5 Eagle?
