Quick TPI help Please.. Before I lose ...
My chance....
I found a TPI system from an 85-86 vette, will it fit my 91 rs 305? Comes with distributor and wiring, i dont know about the computer or ecm yet? What do you think?

if the corvettes are the same setup as the F-bodies then no it wont because your car is speed density and that corvette should haev a Mass Air Flow sensor and a 9th cold start injector which your car also should not have.

ok,
let me add this. The car is currenty TBI. I plan to buy a master rebuild kit for TPI (assuming i can find a complete TPI system, apparently the engine rebuild kits are different for TBI and TPI, which i never would have guessed). SO the intake and all that will be replaced with this one from the vette. Does that make a difference. Sorry if these are stupid question but i want to ****** the stuff up as i can so i dont miss out on the chance. But i also dont want to buy something i dont need.

if you change to a TunePort setup i think you would have to nearly change the complete harness in your car, i just got done doing this in my car bcuz of little rodents like to chew things and it is a difficult and frustrating task but it is very possible. If the guy still has the heads off the vette you would definetly want them over your heads.

I think i need to wait until i finish tearin mine down so i can better understand what is involved. I assumed the car had more than one wiring harness. I dont mind the hard work to get the end result i want and really, really, really love the look of tuned port, but i need to make damn sure what i get will work as i am on a budget.
I dont suppose you know if the wiring he has from the vet would work on the camaro do you? would it plug into the camaros computer, either the one in it or from a camaro that had tpi?
