Year specific information can be found in the 1987-1991 Emissions and Driveability service publications. You can find them in my manuals post.

The TBI fuel pump relay (AC Delco 158240 Multi-Purpose SPDT Relay) can be found on the firewall between the transmission tunnel and the Heater/AC box.
Fuel Pump relay without the transmission kickdown relay. You can see the pump test terminal dangling beside the split loom.

I have a stand alone harness with its own fuel pump relay and power wire. Any reason I can't just plug that fuel pump power wire from the LS harness into the 'test' wire on the factory TBI relay on the firewall? Trying not to butcher the factory harness, nor make more work for myself.
