A quick approach would be to use the Holley (P/N 501-12 300 CFM Pro-Jection for the 1-bbl 1979-82 Jeep 258 CID 2 bbl, M/T) unit with your own sheet metal manifold.
The Holley unit will set you back about $600.00 although I have seen them go for less on e-bay.
Another approach would be to use the Chrysler Factory MPI retro-fit for the 80's Jeep 258 engine. That will cost you considerably more in dollars and complexity if you want a closed loop system. You would still have to fabricate your own manifold.
Lastly you could roll your own from readily available GM EFI components removed from a salvage yard. The eeprom's on GM units can be reprogramed readily whereas you don't have that degree of flexibility on the Chrysler product. Again, you would still have to build a manifold.
