Tbi--->tpi?

I am going to be eventually putting a 350 TPI in 305 TBI if i end up getting the car. What i am wondering is what is different in the TPI harnesses from i think it was 1987-89 and 1990-92? How easy is the swap? and besides the harness and the ECM what else would i have to get from a donor car to complete the swap? thanks
