I think that's all you would need to get lsd, but that auction has ended. In my opinion, it would probably be a better move to find an entire rear end from an 83-85 GSL. That will give you the lsd, disc brakes, and you'll keep the same lug pattern for the wheels. I don't know how available used parts are in Italy though...

Posi diffs didn't show up till 81. Afaik, there are only 2 general versions of diffs. S1-S2 are small axle, S3 are large. See no reason why it wouldn't fit.

Setting up a rear axle after swapping gears is a bit touchy if you haven't done it before. That's why most people prefer to buy a complete assembly.
