510 would probably have the best parts support.
A former boss vintage raced an alfa gtv back in the late 80s. it was cool as heck to look at, but 11k to rebuild the motor, 7k for a rear end, and body panels were unobtanium for it. he got tboned by a volkswagen 914 (porsche), at moroso motorsports park, and that pretty much did the car in.
Some general knowledge questions I need answered about the 1FZ motor if anyone can help, that would be great:
What sort of sensor(s) does it use to trigger the ignition? Variable reluctor (magnetic pickup)? Optical? Hall effect? Old fashioned mechanical breaker points? Are the sensors triggered by trigger wheels on the crankshaft / flywheel, distributor / cam, or both?
How many teeth / windows / slots and are on the crank or distributor trigger wheel? How are they arranged? (Equally spaced, missing teeth gaps, etc)
Does this engine have a fast idle valve (IAC)? If so, how many wires are connected to it? Do you know if it is an on/off, pulse width modulated, thermal, or stepper type?
Thanks folks!

Thanks - yeah, doing some research on potentially using the megasquirt.
3FE has the VR sensor in the dizzy. Here are the settings. You just need to have a peak at the dizzy and see if it's the same or not:

I can't confirm this w/o looking inside the dizzy, but this is saying 1FZ is 36-2:
Megasquirt Support Forum (MSEXTRA) • Toyota Land Cruiser 1FZ-FE Cam/Crank input? Distributorless? (View topic)
Just edited: I think this thread later confirms the dizzy sensor is 24-1
