t2 swap info....im clueless

hey guys just got a rebuilt s4 NA 13b with low comp. rotaries, atkins ceramic a-pex seals, FD corner seals, and an agressive streetport. it was built with bolting on a turbo in mind. im looking to transplant it into the s4 NA that it came from and just wanted to know that materials i would need in order to complete swap. i know doing a s4 t2 into a s4 na is fairly striaght forward, but i bought this uncompleted project from a buddy and told me it would need a lot work. so me being a former 240sx owner and new to the rotary scene and still learning about rotaries themselves i'd like to ask the help of people who might have done something like this before.
much appreciated,
Brian


* eh yeah i know its not exactly a t2. its more like a hobo's t2....o wells

well the he sas the oil metering lines need to be replaced. apex seals need to be seated(wats that mean?), intake manifold needs to be put back on, engine needs to be broken in, needs a turbo manifold and turbo, oil lines to the turbo, il pan needs to be tapped, needs an fmic. thats as far as i know. but im sure there is more.
