s4 front cover with what omp?

ok so im going to be installing an 86's engine in the repu im in the midst of swapping the front covers. i noticed that the omp mounts are different. i understand that the s4 engine has 4 oil injectors and the carbed repu has only 2. obviously i want to stick with the s4 omp so it is to my understanding that i need to drill tap another mounting hole for the s4 omp?

GSL-SE

A GSL-SE front cover has the correct mounting holes for the omp you desire to use. Or you can block it off and premix.

Or, you can just drill and tap new holes in your original front cover. I did this 9 years ago when I put in a 87 Turbo engine. No problems at all.
