I Believe it does. It's been so long. Dunno if you're gonna use the engine mounts. I'm not a big fan of supporting the engine from the front. and don't know which water pump to use.

The older distributer will fit the S5 cover without a problem. You don't need a 1st gen cover for this. I plan on using a S4-S6 electronic CAS on my 12a with it's stock front cover for my 1st gen.

the s5 cover doesn't have the engine mounts on it, i presume thats why he would want to use the 1st gen cover. It fits fine.
