S4 short block versus a S5 SB

Is there any difference between the two? I own a 91 n/a and lost an Apex seal. And I have the ability to get a SB out of a 88 for a reasonable no good price (free). Can I swap the two?

S4 have some badging about hiroshima on the top, the space between spark plugs is greater on the s5 I believe, s5 has an eletrical MOP. You can swap them, depending on what you need to keep.

The spark plugs were mounted in a different spot, so timing will be different.

That's all I know.
