91 305 TPI Motor into 91 305 TBI

Hi Guy's,

I've just purchased a complete 305 with tpi, harness,computer etc from a 91 z28 5 speed and I am going to install it into a 91 RS with a 700R4.

Will I have to change the computer and may be the loom to control the lock up on the torque converter?

Is there anything else I need to change other then the fuel pump to install this engine?

Thanks,

Alex

The TPI 5-speed harness won't have the harness leg that goes down to the transmission. It would probably be easiest to find a harness from an automatic car.

You won't have to change the computer, but you will have to change or flash the chip.
