S5 Engine into a 88 TII, What do I need?

Well, I've been looking around at all of my options for getting my engine rebuilt/replaced. And i've came upon CorkSport not too far from here, they have a JDM S5 engine that they can swap for my Blown S4 Engine. What do I need to swap over from an S4 set-up to an S5?

I just searched it, I couldn't find a recent post about it, only na -> TII swaps, so any info would be great.

It's really easy, just takes some time.

When you have both engines in front of you, the old and the new do the following.

Pull each sensor from the s4 engine and put it into the S5 engine. This includes the OMP... which will require removing the front cover, and while you're at it the oil pan (which will need a new gasket anyway.

Now you're done.

You will have to SWAP the front covers or the omp from the s4 wont fit. Felt the need to clarify there...
