Swapping 84 z28 carb 350 to TPI 350

I have a 1984 camaro z28 with a carb 350 and 5 speed manual transmission. The driveline is out of a 70's camaro. Im looking at swapping it over to a 350 tpi out of a 89 camaro. It has the computer and harness what kind of difficulty am i looking at and will the 350 tpi bolt up to the 5 speed thats in it. Thanks

Biggest difficulty will be the high pressure pump the TPI uses. It's in the tank of the '89, it would be a good idea to just swap the tanks and fuel lines while you're at it if you can.

The rest is the harnessing. Some of it is under the dash. A bit of fun, but do-able.

The engine mountings are all completely 100% identical. You will need a 153-tooth flywheel for '86-up one-piece rear main seal application, that's all.
