they arent though. the 82 pump is a diaphram, i think thats what theyre called, and the 83 has a impeller or whatever they are.

With the idiotic prices of oem dealer parts, you can probably get by cheaper with a carter pump and a Holley 1-4 psi fpr.

This works well if you actually have the pump wired so it pumps and doesn't suck.....
