Shortly after that they added a Oxygen sensor and a valve on the fuel distributor to try to control the mixture. The 85 probably also has a solid state ignition where the 80 would still have points.
I'm probably biased because all my VW tuning was on the early cars, you could probably swap everything over and not have a problem, but I wouldn't do it.

Back when there was such a thing as a 911 parts car, I found that by and large, people were morons. What some did to 911s, cars that I bought for $500 to $2000 that would sell for $5000 to $15000 now, was shocking. So why someone put a Weber on the car will never be known but you can bet one option included "hold my beer."
Wouldn't swapping motor/trans/CIS all in one be the best solution?
There is a chance I can get the Weber to work properly, just not likely. It yard drives, even around town drives, but that's about it.
