Are you planning on pre-mixing? If you are going to premix use the mop as a pattern for the block off plate, if not tap the intake for 1/8" hose barbs.

That 1 port is more likely for vacuum. You will need to drill, tap and barb a hole for each rotor.

Okay, this has probably already been answered, but I don't fully understand what has been said.

I may be buying a streetported S5 engine that comes with the EFI and an electric oil pump. The EFI system will be pulled and a side draft Mikuni is going on. I am pulling my front cover off of my 13B 4 port and putting it onto this motor to use the stock mounts in my GS. This front cover has a mechanical oil pump. I AM NOT PRE-MIXING. How do I make this mechanical pump work?

Please tell me that this is not a hard task to over come. Heh. Thanks, guys.

BTW, if it is relevant, the S5 motor has FD housings.
