Never used one in a rod, but had the misfortune of trying to keep one working properly in its native application.
Run away.
If you are determined to use it, then scrap the stock computer and run a different controller, Megasquirt comes to mind.
They say there are no such thing as a stupid question. They say there is always the exception that proves the rule. Don't be the exception.

the only one i have done was for my buddys 55 chevy. he used a 95 LT1 with a 700R4 transmission. the controller and harness used was from those guys in mena arkansas. that cost around $1100. i also used a fsm for a 95 cadillac. it uses the same engine, and the wiring scematics came in handy more than once. also, i made a bunch of phone calls to those guys and they were more than glad to help out with my stupid questions. i'm pretty sure they make a harness and controller for a gen 3 hemi now. in my opinion, it is not an easy swap for a person who is marginal in wiring skills. i enjoy wiring, and learned a lot from this experiance. although i told my buddy "i learned stuff i didn't wanna know" being as it was gm related. if you are up for a real challenge, go for it. just remember, ALL connections must be bullet proof, because if they are substandard, you will have no end to chasing gremlins.
