What are the differences from different year TPI setups?
What are the differences from different year TPI setups?
If I understand it correctly, the manifold bases differred from 85-86 and 87-92 with the later years having the center manifold bolt angled for the 87-later heads.
The runners were 85-88 (w/ cold start injector hole) and 89-92 (w/o cold start injector hole).
The plenums were 85-88 (w/ cold start passage), 89 (w/o cold start passage), and 90-92 (w/o cold start passage & w/ MAP boss).
What about the throttle bodies? From what I can find there was a difference between the 85-88 and the 89-92 TB's but I don't know what those differences were.
Am I correct on my descriptions? Any other info would be appreciated. Thanks.

You're correct on the plenum/runners/base. The TB difference is the way the IAC passage routes, and the way the throttle cable connects.
