your going to have troubles with the crossmember why you ask ... 82 doesnt have inner bolts in the frame to mount the trans mount farther back for a t-5 changeover. its easier to weld a extension on to your 82's crossmember thats what I did to mine.
theres a hole in the firewall for the clutches master cylinder. theres like a metal plug that seals it you just tap it out. but you have to drill two small holes for the master cylinders U-bolt to secure it.
I used a 700r4 drive shaft for mine.
If you need a flywheel I have a real nice one and your stock starter will work with a 5 speed flywheel

also you will need a 700r4 or t-5 torque arm, your 82's is longer and when you try to cut it shorter it won't fit the bracket on the t-5 very well. heres everything you will need.
83-early 86 two piece rear main flywheel
84 up torque arm I used a 84 v-8 700r4 torque arm on mine
84 up bell housing
I used a 89 clutch pedal setup
all 84 up 4 clylinder - V-6 - and V-8 used the same hydraulic stuff
83-84 5 speed shifter plate
upper and lower shifter boots
84 up 700r4 or t-5 driveshaft I used one from a v-6 car with a 700r4
5 speed dash lower panel but you could cut yours out
also the v-8's use a heat shield around the hydraulic slave cylinder try to get one.
good luck
