TPI differences, 86 and 89..

I have a spare TPI setup laying around from my 86 vette that I've spent a lot of time porting and I'm going to polish it up, my question is can I use it on my 89? I know the differences with the cold start injector but as far as I can tell the difference is only in the runners and the fuel rail, am I correct in that? Basically I'd like to know if the base and the plenium's are the same.. thanks!

The base is different, it has the old style bolt pattern. On 87+, the 4 middle intake bolts go into the heads at a different angle.

good call, completely over looked that one that should have been obvious.. is that it? That's pretty easy to fix..
