Nathan, I can tell you from experience that the 83 turbo will be too much motor for the 4 speed and you will need a 5 speed transmission and further more you will need the lower ratio transfer case, because I had to change the sprockets out just so I had a use for first gear. The 78 99 still had a "B" block engine, but should be a better fit than the 74 that I fit an "H" block into.
As far as the injection system goes I am not sure about the ecu system since I have always just removed it and installed the lh system, but be glad to chat w/ you about it when you get there.
Let me know as you get to stages in your rebuild and I can send you photo's of what I did that may help you.
