If I remember correctly, a trans from an '83 fit without any problem into my '82. The '82 drivetrain (engine, trans, suspension, etc.) was just like the '81 my mom had. I think you could do the swap without any problem but you never know if they decided one year to start using a different spline count for the drive axles or stuff like that. Bottom line, I can't think of any reason you couldn't do it.
