There isn't much work actually involved; the fuel system uses the same
feed and return lines, it bolts right in.  As for the 5 cylinder;
no, unless you want to do a lot of cutting, welding and fabrication
because the 5 cylinder is bigger.  Think of your engine with an
extra cylinder-that much bigger.
