I believe that there were many non-turbos made from 82-85 that may have also had a manual trans, hand cranked window lifts, and manual climate contro unit. These are very rare in the US Market.

Viton is a great choice for new hoses, but is unnecessary. Standard rubber hoses (new replacement) are fine too. The viton wil provide a longer service life, but 8-10x longer? Not sure that the cost is worth it. I typically only use Viton hose for the hoses that require removal of many other parts to reach.
