Car: 82 Berlinetta/57 Bel Air

Transmission: 4L80E/4L80E
Axle/Gears: 12B-3.73/9"-3.89
All the accessories, water pump, mounts, dipstick & the like will fit on the engine. Whether the flexplate fits depends upon the year of your LG4.

The intake won't fit, but if you get a q-jet EGR Vortec manifold, your carb & distributor will work. You need to get exhaust plumbed up to the intake for the EGR valve to work.

You don't want to keep any of your exhaust, even though it will bolt up. Now's the time to get those headers, good y-pipe, free-flowing cat, and larger catback.
