I think will fit cars up to 1985."
This is the answer I got from the seller.
After looking up the part number in PET5, my best guess is I am clueless cause I can not find the partnumber at all. I get error 2 in PET5
Anyone else who can help?

The LSD on ebay is an early model. I am not sure where the break point is, but it will not fit an 85 or later. Jim at 928 International claims the early units can be modified with a machined ring to fit the later cars.
Looking at eBay there is quite a difference in price between the early and late units. I bought an early unit some time back for $212. The late units are in demand and generally seem to see in the $700 to $1K range.
The question I have is in the main pinion shaft from the early 5 speeds to the later ones. Is there a difference? I have never had an early box apart to compare.

It might be possible to use '78-84 pinion shaft in later box if also '78-84 reverse gear is used. I wouldn't count on it though without checking very carefully.
In '87 gears were made 2-3mm wider. Not sure what this means in regards to pinion shaft lenght for example but suspect that it did stay same as box casing wasn't lenghtened.
