If he used the original flexplate and starter to the '82 motor, it shouldn't be a problem. Also, there's no need to swap the cams and stuff. He can use the cam and lifters as is in the '82 motor, he just needs to use the correct length pushrods (they're probably the same) and use the self-aligning rocker arms that are already on the '95 heads.
