s4 engine in an s5?

Ok so i got a t2 for cheep just a roller and also might buy a s4 t2 motor. I kinda am going *** backwords i got an fd first and now am jumpin into a whole new world. So what parts would i need to change over from an s5 to use the s4 motor? Or would i be better off to just build it as a s4. Hope someone can point me in the right direction. Dont flame to hard....

Why not get an s5 motor? It makes more power, and will be a lot easier of a swap.
