Respecognize!
not to be an *** but search. oh and you will get flamed by other members for not searching. And the answer is yes but with work. The 6th ports are different and the VDI isnt there on a 87.

it will fit, but you will need custom work like changing the front cover and MOP, adding RPM switches and solenoids, taking the old engine harness and modifiying it to work on the newer motor, etc
It is not plug and play.

you can put the S5 block in to make it easy, things you'll have to keep off the old engine is the front cover, injectors, MAF, intake manifolds, basically everything that bolts to the block.
