Default '88 RX7 LM7 build questions.

I am building a v8 RX7 using a LM7 5.3L and I am switching the intake manifold to an F-body style so it will fit under the hood. Can I use the 5.3L throttle body, fuel rails and injectors, or will I have to source the entire setup from an LS1?

I believe the rain and injectors work, but it's REALLY ugly. I also think the 5.3 tb is dbw, so you may want to get a cable driven one.

I have the cable style 5.3L throttle body, so that shouldn't be an issue, if it fits the LS1 manifold.
