So as I am preparing to tear my car down for restore, I have possibly found a 3.0L six cylinder motor that I can afford (and afford to have rebuilt). Note: My car is a 2.0L 4-banger.

I know that the 3.2L is a very popular upgrade. For the 3.0L six, what can I expect out of that motor? Do I have to run the CIS injection or can I go ITB's (or other intake setup) and megasquirt setup?

You can fuel it any way you want. Carbs, CIS, or some flavor of EFI will all work. The CIS is nice in that it and the engine were set up for each other, but the other setups have their own strong points as well.

You'll either have to flip the fuel meter and air box around or notch the rear trunk bulkhead for clearance if you go with CIS.
