any problems putting in an 81 motor into an 85 car

are there any problems i might encounter putting an 81 12a into my 85 gs. i just want to know if everything bolts up and matches or if there is anything i will have to do to make it fit? if all goes well i will have the motor in a week or so.


thanks,
kyle

shouldnt be very different. i dont know about wisconsin, but its a law that you cant swap an engine into a car that is new than the engine in va. not that they would know or anything, but just incase you cared.
