Intake Manifold Swap??? 200 1983

So why, you may ask, am I considering replacing the perfectly good intake manifold on my 83 245T with one from a B230FT?

My 83 is not intercooled, and I have a complete setup from an 85 244TI. The problem is that I don't want to loose the cruise control (sorry). The horizontal throttle cable spindle interferes with the hose from the intercooler to the manifold (it runs straight back along the left side of the bay). The stock 83 245T routes the output from the turbo across the valve cover. I don't think I have ever seen an 85 240TI with cruise. If so, is there an easier mod? If not, will the B230FT manifold fit my B21T? Thanks...
