Default OM606 Engine Swap - Mounts/Airbag/ABS Questions

I'm in the process of rebuilding an OM606 engine which I plan to eventually put in a Jeep JK. The OM606 will have an OM603 mechanical pump, and I plan to run new gauge clusters for the swap.

Because this swap won't communicate with the Jeep computers anyway, I'm considering just rewiring most of the vehicle since I will be stripping this down to a frame to start my build anyway.

However, I'm unsure what is the minimum necessary wiring to the stock gauge cluster computer to have ABS and Airbags function correctly. Is it just the wheel speed sensors, ABS system, on switch wire, and airbag connectors that are required?

Finally, if anyone has done an OM606 swap before; how did you handle the engine mount? I vaguely remember reading something about using a hemi swap engine frame mount before, but I can't seem to locate that information at this point. Obviously, I can fabricate my own engine mount; but it would be easier if there was a kit available already that would work for the mounts.
