I'm personally not a huge fan of Cardone parts, but you use what you have to. To be absolutely sure what you have, it could be a good idea to pull the part number from your existing brake booster and search by part number for a replacement. 1983 had a VIN split for the booster and master cylinder based on chassis number. I went through that recently in my SL when redoing the master cylinder. Mine was even more difficult since it was a grey-market Euro model. The forum sponsor (Pelican Parts) has a decent amount of info on their site and can help verify which part you need if you call them. Could be worth your time based on the VIN split confusion.
