Summit Racing gasket set...work on '89?

So just wondering, will this kit work an 89 Tpi motor that was converted to carburetor? Or Do I need a different kit? Thanks!

Sure
but the valve cover gaskets are wrong ( if that is important to you )
Need gaskets for the center bolt covers , not perimeter cover included in this kit

FWIW ,
the intake manifold is the only thing that makes it a TPI.
With the TPI gone it is just another '89 SBC engine , so not worth mentioning what it "had" previously
Only causes confusion
