The 87 and 84 trannies have different (suspension) hanging systems. You'll need to use the system that's compatible with the CHASSIS, not the tranny. You can bolt the early yellow "ears" onto a late tranny.
The 83 944 trannies can only be used with the early chassis cars because they don't have the tunnels on top of the tranny for the two 13mm head carriage bolts. Also, the early trannies have no electronic speedo sender so if you put it in a late car- no speedo reading.
