Help identify engine.

I bought what I thought was a vs750 engine. I put it into the frame and all seemed OK until I tried to hook up the wiring harness. This engine has two pickups on the stator that run to the cdi. Any ideas?

VS750 is supposed to have 2 pick-ups. VS800 only has one.

Thanks guys, I am not near the bike for a week or so but I found a wiring diagram the and yes the VS750 engine has 2 pickups. The bike had a 800 in it when I got it, the case had a window in it with a con rod sticking out. Now to find a cdi for under 250 bucks.
