the oil squirters are for the pistons, not the valvetrain.

also there was never a FWD sr20det, only DE's. all the DET's were awd configurations, but it just so happens the fwd DE trannies bolt up, allowing the swap to be done on US models.

ill look at my g20 tonight or tomarrow see if it says de on the block..
no, because IIRC the early 91-94 se-r's had the red valve covers.

and i have seen FWD swaps with DET's with the black oil seperator can.

they shouldnt say DE or anything, it will say SR20 or KA24 or GA16 or VG30, etc. they dont include the rest.

and i dont believe non turbo DE's use oil squirters...i remember a friend of mine with a non turbo block that was turbo'ed and he had it built and put the squirters in (since i think there are provisions for them, they're just not there)

DE's never came with red valve covers save for NA primera high compression motors, but some of the high comp. primera motors had silver valve covers.
avenir valve covers were either silver or black.
all fwd's came with the black seperator can.
non turbo DE's do not use the oil squiters, only the DET's, which i said already.
