I WILL LOOK AT THAT WHEN I GET HOME.THE CAR SOMETIMES HESITATES IF YOU TAKE OFF SLOW SOMETIMES NOT ALL THE TIME.IF YOU PUT YOUR FOOT IN IT IT WILL ROAST THE TIRES.IVE REPLACED OR CHECK ALL THE SENSORS AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS OFF.GOT THE CODES FROM THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHING TO KNOW WHAT SENSORS WHERE BAD.SO NOW I WANT TO BUY A CHIP BUT I DONT WANT THE WRONG ONE IM USED TO CARB MOTORS SO I HAVE LITTLE KNOWLEDGE ON THE EFI STUFF.THE HESITATION WAS MAKING ME THINK THE INJECTORS OR COMPUTER .JEGS CHIP FOR MY CAR ONLY COMES UP FOR A 305 SO IM WONDERING WHAT KIND OF CAR OR TRUCK I NEED TO GET THE ECM OUT OF OR IF IT MATTERS.I WANT TO GET THE MOST OUT OF THE CHIP CAUSE I CAN GET THE ECM AND INJECTORS FREE.

Re: MOTOR SWAP COMPUTER ?
I thought the TBI fuel pumps were the same but 5.0 and 5.7L has differant part numbers?
Definatly have to have the 5.7L injectors!
Here's a EFI dictionary and abbreviation list to get you started:

TBI has fuel pressure @ 18 lbs max and TPI has @ 90 max. Pressure regulator reduces it to running pressure.
Re: MOTOR SWAP COMPUTER ?
Ah! That was why they were differant numbers! 5.0L was TBI and 5.7L was TPI that year Camaro?
Cause I know 5.0L and 5.7L TBI engines in other cars and trucks are the same.
So to answer the OP question his 5.0L TBI fuel pump will be fine in his 5.7L TBI engine swap.
Just needs correct injectors and chip.

Re: MOTOR SWAP COMPUTER ?
I don't believe there ever was a 5.7 TBI.
Edit: I see a 1991 Camaro. Eagle is correct on TPI for 2nd pump listed.
