Yes, and there's nothing more...a delay wiper motor and corresponding switch.

Yes, providing that the years and type of motor are similar.

I looked up a 83 wiper motor and it was slant on its side with diff mounting holes. Maybe I got the wrong pics from google.

I did that swap on my 82. Took all the controls and motor from an 85 Monte Carlo SS. You need to run a power wire for the controls. It's a little complicated, not impossible. Look up your question on the net, I think it will guide you to Malibu Racing forums. There are wiring diagrams there. I followed it, ran a new hot and it's great. I'm not sure, but the earlier Malibus switched the negative and the newer ones switch the positive.

yeah but if i use a new motor for my year and the switgh for my year it should work no problem right???

A new motor and switch from your year MAY work. You still may need to swap the wiring from a donor also. The later otors have one displaced mount hole that you need to deal with also..
