Icon5 Engine swap... Place a 2.9FI in a 2.8 body?

Sorry guys if I placed this in the wrong thread. I couldn't fine the 2.9L forum.

I have a good '86 2.9lFI engine that I would like to place in an '85 2.8l body. All I have to do is swap out control modules (brains), wiring harness, and engines...correct? Everything else is the same...correct?

Duh??? I forgot about the fuel pump. Can I swap tanks/fuel pumps and then it'll work?
