If you have a 9 bolt in the car already, if it's a 10 bolt then no, it's a completly different rear end.

the complete rear end should bolt right up. make sure u get the proportioning valve off the donor car or the brakes wont work right.

The rearend itself is a direct bolt-in. The only thing you may have an issue with is the fact that 82's have SAE brake lines, 85's are metric, so you might have to use some adapters or change a couple of brake lines to get everything working.

I know the 9-bolt was available in 85, but I was unaware that they saw action in Camaros.
