RBob's EBL would work well with a Turbo MPFI V6. I currently have one up and running on a 3.1 TBI.

I'm not sure what the stock distributor is on a 60* V6, but if it is some sort of HEI with no mechanical advance, the answer is: probably.

2) Yes, stock sensors will work.

3) Not sure on the piggy back. I thought it could be done, but I'm not positive.

I just got ignition control working on my MS'd 406 this weekend. MSD Probillet distributor feeds an HEI-4 module which provides tach signal to Megasquirt, and then Megasquirt fires my MSD 6AL box at appropriate time. If your distributor has some sort of VR sensor (very likely), than a similar setup should work.
