Per: I bought a new set for my 82 rabbit and although there was no
differentiation between years, but there was a fast versus slow difference.
Fast was 6 seconds and slow was 30 seconds.  Not supposed to mix the plugs
or the timing relay.  Mine were the fast type.  I bought them from the Parts
Place in Michigan.  Service was NOT good.
