Welcome aboard thirdgen.org.
If it's MAF, it'll have a MAF sensor in the air inlet.

Since the factory didn't go to speed density until 1990, it's a pretty safe bet it's MAF if it came off of an '85 or '86.
Since you're asking about TPI-specific issues, and not Engine Swap, let's move this to the TPI forum.

He has a really informative thread on installing TPI in older cars. A lot of wiring schematics also.
