The 205 SHOULD fit where the BW case came off. I would say "will", but you know as soon as that word is uttered something goes wrong. The back of the tranny and the front of the case will have the same bolt pattern and the female spline on the case is the same as the male spline out of the tranny, the only difference MIGHT be the length of the tailhousing.
Price: if $450 is good for you, then it was a good price. I bought an '80 to convert my '85 to 4x4 for $100, but it literally just happened by chance.
8.8 vs. 9: use whatever rearend has the ratio that matches your front axle. If they all match go for the 9". it's stronger, cheaper to rebuild, easier to rebuild, and it looks SOO much cooler in super gloss black and not having a rear cover
