Sometime I try to be "witty", but I usually only make it about half way.
I honestly didn't think the cam covers had been taken off with the cross bar still on the car. I figured it must have been replaced after the cam covers were off. With that crankase oil diffuser on the right side I figure it's already enough of a PIA to not have to worry about the cross bar.

87-88 motor into an 85 S ?
Harvey: I can't answer that. You might ask Jim at 928 International what issues there might be. Things like engine and chassis wiring harness and brain box differences are likely to rear their ugly heads. Better if you found a later car that needed a motor.
