It can't be bolted up due to an integrated bell housing. You'll have to go with a later model tranny (post 83). As for the fifth gear, I'm running 31's on my 82 with 4.11 gears, and no fifth gear. By the time I get up to 65mph, it feels like I'm higher in the RPMs than I should be, and I don't have another gear to get into. I'm buying a rebuilt L50 five speed locally which will kill two birds with one stone.
you really need to start a thread of your own about that question for the 4.3 and as far as the l series transmissions go they are all integrated bellhousingthe later model being the strongest of the three
