Ok so I gave up on the 5sfe build and bought a beams red top. It should be here within a week. My question is what advice or fun stories does anyone have on doing the swap into an st204?

The 5S has two engine hooks- one on the driver side of the head, one on the passenger side. The BEAMS only has the driver side hook. You'll need to switch the other one over. You'll need to repin a few wires and either extend the harness or cut a new hole in the firewall. The TPS will likely be broken during shipping. Did you get the stock intake and the B pipe? Both are fairly important to have but not critical. Otherwise, it's a fairly straightforward swap.
Pictures of the engine? Good luck! -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates. Even Socrates told us to use the search button!
