Default 1993 2.3L to 1985 5.0 swap distributer help!

My bro and I have been working on this a while a 1993 mustang LX 2.3 swapped for a 1985 5.0 got it dropped in but going from fuel injected to carburated the 5.0 distributor pig tail is where were hung up not sure what to splice it in to, there's a black, 2 reds and a purple any suggestions please? Already have the 2.3 wire harness out from the a/c and injectors but this is where were stuck now! Can't find any diagrams or articles on the net that detail what they go to on the 2.3 electrical setup.
