No, they aren't if he reused the 4-banger tranny.

The diff from the V8 cars is an 8.8, the V6 and 4-banger cars had it's much weaker brother, the 7.5.

The T5 for the 4-banger is also not rated to handle the same amount of torque (though they seem to hold up just fine) and has different gear ratios and a less-steep overdrive.

Hey Yamy-Luc, the rear end you are able to tell visually if you know what to look for. The transmission is not so easy to find out, unless you take it out and inspect or hopefully it still has the tag on it. I am in Montreal, so if you need someone to look at it I'd be happy to help.
