TBI TO TPI NEED SOME ANSWERS

Well i know this topic is posted all over the board but i still feel there are left out questions such as using a tbi fuel pump I know the TPI pump puts out 50 and the TBI puts out 12 has anyone ran there TBI fuel pump with TPI and if so how does it run i have both cars but do not want to tie my car up for a long period of time.Also the cam in the TPI motor is that a diffrent higher lift cam or is the tpi/tbi cam pretty much the same thing? As for the detent/tv cable and throttle cable are they longer then the TBI ones?

John 89'RS To many mods but now the best one TPI

It won't run on 12 lbs.
The cam is different /higher lift & duration
The cables are longer
