Nearly all cars have an ignition switch which has the following settings:

ON
ACCessories
IGNition
STart

You can use these to wire any modern wiring harness to the car.

Its best to run these outputs to relays so the current doesn't overpower the switch. Main power can come from the battery through a fuses to your relays.

Getting the engine bolted in is about 10% of the way there.
The next 80% can go quickly with help and skill.
That last 10% takes about as long as the 90% that came before it.
