'86 "loyale" (although the loyale name wasn't used until '90. before that they were just referred to by their trim level. the loyale body style is an EA82, the '84 is an EA81).

 

the EA82 has a larger engine bay, and more tranny options. the rest of it really depends on what you want out of it. if you want a wheeler, I'd definitely keep the EA81. but for a street car, the EA82. lots of options, and your preferences with those will change what your ideal setup would be.

 

 

lots of information already posted. check the stickies at the top of the page, there is a list of most of us who've done the swap, with some more info about each of our vehicles. find a setup you like, search for posts by the owner, and you'll probably find lots of info about how we did it, what we like/don't like, and what we might do different in the future.
