Fuel Pump Question

I have a 91 firebird 5.0 tbi that i will be swapping with either a l98 or a lt1 this winter. well my fuel pump went and i am under the understanding that when i swap the motor the fuel pump will need to be changed anyway.


so i bought this pump

will that work with my tbi and also my swap?



thanks

Both fuel inj systems have dif fuel pump/psi needs.

That means the company makes a pump for both systems.
Im not sure if the TBI can handle the PSI and volume of the TPI pump. Maybe ask in the TBI section??
