87 and 89 TPI manifolds, differences????

ok i searched the boards for the answer to this, but i am unclear as if it can be done,here is what i am thinking, i can get an 89 tpi intake for pretty cheap, i was gonna port it, and keep my original one in case i screw the 89 up , since i dont want to take a chance on mine, will the 89 work with my setup, i heard that the 89 doesnt have a cold start injector is there a hole still there? what would i have to change,to make it work??

I think the only diff is 89 has no cold start injector ..... but I think that is in the fuel rail, so then again maybe there is no diff between the 2 manifolds.
