I believe there was a one year, '83 I think, where there was no Vette produced because of the transition from C3 to C4 and I'm pretty sure the L82 died with the C3. I'm not sure whether the L98 came out in '84 or '85 in the C4.
Mugen, personally I like the interior of the T/A better. The dash and door panels look better, as well as the more supportive seats. The dash size is not all that bad, but the hard, plastic forward half is prone to cracking and they tend to reflect in the windshield, especially after some ArmorAll.
Acutally they made 13 1983 vettes. It was the begining of the new body style. They destroyed all but 1. I believe they didnt meet some standard and they waited it out. It now sits at the vette musuem in BG, Kentucky. I got pics somewhere of it
