i currently have a 1992 camaro with a 5.0 tbi 5 speed stock set up. i recently purchased a tpi manifold with runers, plenum, throtle body, injectors, distributor, vacum lines and i think thats about it. i did not get an ecu or ecm whatever the computer is called i forget because i didnt know if it would work because it is for an auto and i have a 5 speed so if you guys could help i could use a few pointers to start my shoping list thanks

me to
I'm looking to do the same thing I think
you need a 45psi pump that sould work in your tank
(holley)
new fuel lines, they kind of splice on
(holley)
they also make piggy-back harnesses and a chip too
I dont think you need to change the computer
Holley makes all this stuff for one of their port injection upgrade kits (part #s fail me)
The kit comes with all this stuff to reuse tbi parts (like the throttle body w/out the injectors)
I'm trying to figure out if it'll all work on my motor (90 tbi 5.0) with the tpi setup

Im saying that holley makes this kit to convert TBI to port inj using the tb but you could order the parts seperate and use your plenum runners base and tb

sort of on topic:

I currently have an 85 car swapping in a carb. It has the v6 fuel pump init. I was going to be swapping in an 87 carb system using an 84 harness.

I have a line on an 89 tpi setup w/harness & ecm. Is this compatable w/the 84 dash harness, or will there be some issues.

I think there will be some power leads I'll have to rewire as they show on the 85 fulie fuse block, and not the 84 carb.
