The unknown to me will be the transplant into the chassis.

For anyone not familiar with the S85, it has it's own range of problems the S65 is free of. Rod bearings are not an "if" on the S85, they're a "when". Clearance seems to solve that, at least in my experience.

The S65 is free of VANOS errors and the S85 is a nightmare with VANOS solenoid and the HP VANOS pump that goes with it. Most often the problems are the result of rod bearing swarf, but the VANOS pumps themselves are vulnerable to picking debris as well.
