Hey! Too bad yall aren't in the same country 'cause you could and IJ could meet up and do the redneck rivalry thing Toyota style if you build it... anyone else running sbc supra's?

For what good reason? Back in the early to mid 90's we didn't have LS engines..

Well, if you're looking for a reason the Miata guys switched from the 5.0 to the LS, you can ask all the Mustangs that I picked on in my SS when I was driving that... That said, you make a good point about the availability of the LS back then, I hadn't really considered that. :)

To the OP, I know a guy on here who goes by SySt has swapped an LS6 into his Mk3. Nice build if I say so myself.
