how Do you tell wich 1 u got id like to now cause i jus picked 1 up to swap into my camaro thats carbd right now

 

You have neither.....Those are used on TPI motors......GM used TPI motors on 85 and up.....Your car is carbed not fuel injected....Those items are used on fuel injected motors

On speed density setups you wont have a MAF sensor

On a MAF setup, the MAF is located between the air intake and the throttle body

 

From what I got out of that garbled message is that he just got a motor to replace his carbed motor but I may be wrong because the message borders on illegible, a bad combination of abbreviations and misspellings.

You cant miss a MAF, its a large black tubular sensor with wires going into it. It has screens(just like window screen) on each end. If it does'nt have that its probably a Speed Density motor. Do you know what year the motor is? That would answer your question as well.

 

srry i should have been more specific im new to this. i have an 83 camaro it had a crossfireinjection in it when i bought it i changed it all over to carb and built a 350 for it now im goin to change it from carbd to tpi i picked up a tpi and harness out of the junkyard for the car it is ethier and 86 or 85 and i was looking to see if it had a MAF sensor on it but the intake tubing was gone so i was wonderin if ne one could help me find out wat setup i have srry about not posting enough info im still in high school and ive had the car for 3 years ive spent every dolloar ive made on this car and id like to finsh it so please will some 1 help me find a way to identify i can post pics if u want

 

Chances are that it is a MAF, if it came from a car that old. Speed density cars were made from 90 - 92. Do you have a place for a 9th injector? It is the cold start injector that was used on MAFs I believe.

 

Post some pics......

 

heres some picks and i think it does have the cold start injector but it is missing

I think it would be a MAF. I didnt see a MAP sensor on the plenum. If the TPI u got isnt a 90-92 it was a MAF, GM used speed density in 90-92.

 

thank you i look at a couple of pics of other tpi setups and the maf setup looks the closest to mine and looked at wiring diagrams today and the ones for the maf system mached up the closest hopefully this week end ill get it runnin post pics wen done

 

It looks like a '85-86 TPI system to me. The lower intake appears to be made for the 90-degree angle center intake bolts used on '86 and older heads.

 

yea it bolted right up to the heads i have on the car wich are off an 86 350 so it probly is an earlier model im hopping it runs is there a difference in computers from different years of the TPI? i would apreaciate this info cause i still need to find a computer for the car and i would like to kno wich 1 i should buy

 

I'm not sure about the 86 model tpi computer, but I do know the 85 tpi ecm is different than the later years'. Unlike the newer versions, the 85 ecm has 2 connectors that plug directly into the computer rather than 3 and the MAF burn-off relay is piggy-backed on the ecm. Also the PROM (commonly referred to as the "chip") and MEMCAL (fuel calpak) are separate, while in the newer versions they have been combined into one chip. Check out your wiring harness and find out if it has 2 connectors for the ecm or 3 to determine what computer to buy.

 

The 86-89 ECM uses two connectors also. Its the 90-92 that uses three connectors to the ECM.
