You can get a TBI to Vortec heads intake manifold that will make the swap much easier. Your current throttle body and accessories will not mount to a stock Vortec intake.

i'm not wanting to run the tbi on the 1990 block. i'm wanting to run the sequential fuel injection (vortec) heads and intake on the 1990 block. I've seen the edelbrock 2116 intake to run the tbi on the vortec heads but im not wanting to run the tbi being its gonna be going in the 1997 truck thanks

The top end swaps, I believe the problem will be with can and crank sensors
