Chevrolet Repair: Engine Retrofit, tpi engine, car harnesses


Question
I,ve Installed a 1998 4x4 Chevy truck Vortec 5.7 engine with the CSFI system into a 1985 Chevy Corvette that had a 5.7 with TPI. I have retrofitted a point style distributor(pre 1975)with the HEI components from the TPI engine(in order to clear the intake manifold)and it works great. I have made new fuel lines also,but I have no fuel pressure,no power at the pump relay or at the fuel pump. I can apply 12 volts to the "G" terimal at the ALDL and the pump will pressure the system. Which of the 5 wires going into the relay is the power supply wire and where does it pick up its power at. I have the donor truck,all wiring harnesses,and other components and sensors. I am trying to use as many of the stock parts and pieces(from both vehicles)as I can to reduce cost, also will the TPI injector circuit operate the CSFI injector system if it is wired in correctly.(Using both truck and car harnesses) The TPI injector system is controlled by the Ign.system,PCM/ECM and it does pulse when the engine is in crank mode. Thanks for your help.
