Default lsx miata question

Im going to be getting a ls1 mount kit for my miata. i have a ls1 and a carberated 350 in my garage. Basicaly what i was wondering is will the 350 mount to the ls1 mounts. cause it would be alot easier electrically to put the 350 in the miata than to wire in all the guages and electronics for the ls1

To run a carbed LS1 you just need a MSD 6010 or 6012 depending on what year your engine. 24 tooth (black crank sensor) needs 6010 and 58 tooth (Grey crank sensor) needs 6012. The earlier years (99-06?) are the 24 tooth and the new engines (06?-current) are 58 tooth.
