Re: TPI swap
I have everything you need. 1987 350 TPI setup, complete intake setup, harness and computer, MAF sensor, air box with flex hose, charcoal canister, almost new in-tank electric fuel pump, metal fuel lines that run from the intake to the hose on the drivers fenderwell. I just pulled it off today(10/18). $400 plus shipping from 74021.
This also includes the TPI distributor. This is all of the TPI stuff, but not the L98 motor.

Re: TPI swap
ok how many miles are on the motor? and can i get some pics. and waht condition is the motor in leaking and is it in good workign order.
and i am guessing sence it is an l98 it probally has the vacume line for the 700r4 4 spd tranny

Re: TPI swap
i am pretty sure. it has a vacume line i mean is it computer controlled. i can use a od-1 reader and read when the physcial clutch closes at high way speeds at low rpms so i thoguht it was a comp controlled. but when i go my 3.23 gear installed the mechanic said it was a vaccume controlled. can ya tell me so i am giving accurate info thank man

Re: TPI swap
Due to baterry location, Firebird and Camaro engine wiring harness are different. Firebird battery is on the DS, Camaro on the PS.

Re: TPI swap
To make your swap easier, stick with a TPI setup from a 89. 85-86 about the same. 87-88 about the same. 89 one year only. 90-92 about the same but, the wiring harness on a 90 is slightly different. Hope this helps with your swap.

Re: TPI swap
The 700R4 isn't vacuum controlled, it uses a cable to signal throttle position, and I believe the ECM monitors vacuum and tells the transmission when to shift.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but thats essentially how it works.
