Yes, you can. Highly recommended even if you stay with the TBI set-up.

Get headers with a y-pipe. Otherwise, there will have to be modifications made - no headers bolt to the factory y-pipe.
The cat inlet is bigger for TPI than TBI. The hot setup is to replace the entire TBI exhaust system with headers, cat, and catback for the TPI application.

IF (while still a TBI) you want to hook up your Thermac, Hooker makes a part/adapter to do so. 10930HKR check it out on the Holley website.
Clamps on to your new header and provides the thermal feedback to the air cleaner assembly....
Look at it close and hard enough and you MIGHT be able to make your own. Then when you switch to TPI, just remove the clamp and assembly.
