1) There is no such thing as an Euro S52. They're all S50's.

2) You will not pass any OBD-2 regulations (or OBD-1 for that matter), nor will you pass emissions in any state in the US. If you want to swap the engine and have it pseudo-legal, you need an OBD-1 car, anything 1995 and earlier.

Everything fits great. You will need exhaust, intake, Euro radiator or upgraded all-aluminum radiator, some various brackets, etc. Count on 30-40 hours labor for the swap depending on how detailed/thorough you want the conversion.

He likely has one or more in stock, he's highly knowledgeable, and is an all around good guy.
