Default list of ECMS?

I need to find a computer for my engine. It needs to be MAF 5-speed but i dont know what i can use. I am looking on ebay and there are TONS of different numbers/letters flying around and some dont say if its MAF or speed density or Atuo or Manul etc...

Is there a list somewhere of the computers i can use? Also for the record, the engine is in an RX7 using a "retro-fit" wiring harness.

J.Y. is not my friend [X(]
I have called EVERYJ.Y. in the phonebook and NOBODY has a single one. I found a couple 2.3l ones but thats it.

dont wanna go with anything aftermarket as the engine will only be in the car for a short while before the 408 goes in...

well, i'll just have to come out and say...
I cannot afford $200 for a computer right now. The computers themselves i can get brand new for under $95 BUT there is a $125 core charge... So i was hoping to find a cheap one so i can atleast start the engine and make sure it is all good before i go too much firther with the swap.

Other than the ECM i just need a clutch disc, radiator and a driveshaft.

that doesnt make any sense... you can use the same aftermarket system on the big motor

that was my exact thought when i read that. if you plan to go bigger with the motor later on, aftermarket is the best choice you have
