um, don't get me wrong here but i have an 82 as well, but a 12a motor. i know that 84s and below came with the 12a and 84 and 85 se's have the 13b, so im just kinda wondering is all. am i right?

 

The 82's came stock with 12A, but they can be considered standard with a 13B engine, as a lot of people put them in...

Mine used to have a 12A, a previous owner popped in a 13B and injection

So you are right, they did come with 12A
