Welcome to the boards, Terry. An f-body is a great car to have and I'm sure you'll love it.

Hey, I have an 88 Supra too! I've owned 5 Fbodies, but now I'm in the process of having the best of both worlds! I like the supra, the styling, the interior, the ride etc..but I hate the powerplants..so it's getting an LS1.. Good luck with whatever you do.

Get the best of both worlds! Get an LS1, build it up, and drop it in. Probably weighs the same or less than the 7m. My buddy (Doward on Supramania forums) is just about done with his 7m. He's also helped me work on mine. He said if he has to do it all over again....or had to do it over again....he's gonna go ls1. He was really impressed with the power/times my car does for just a cam. But, welcome to LS1tech!

I've had a couple MK3s and like 'em, but wouldn't give up my LSx for another Welcome.

Welcome. Mark III supras are plentiful and reasonable and would make a great Ls1 conversion.

Don't be a douche.

We love ALL Supras at SF.

Maybe we just didn't like YOU.

Ive got a decent sized build that im going with it right now. Forged Rods, Forged pistons 20 over, MHG, ARP's, 57-1 ct26. Shooting for a just a nice 400 whp street car.

Im from Bryan OH, but im living in Lima where I'm going to college.

Ive actually contemplated putting an lt1 into the mk3, and the ls1 but the cost kept me away from putting the ls1 though.
