Hello everyone,
I?m new to the page and have done some searching both before and since becoming a member but have not found the information I am seeking. I have a 1989 240 DL wagon with a 5 speed manual transmission and have available to me a 1991 740 sedan turbo (B230FT) swap, complete (as far as I can tell) with the turbo exhaust manifold, turbo, intake manifold, intercooler, piping, wire harness and ECU. I would consider myself mechanically inclined however I am not an expert by any means and have never swapped an engine before. I am wondering what obstacles I will come across (what won?t be unbolt, bolt back on / plug and play). Will the harness and ECU from the donor car work on my 240? Any other things to be aware of or would need to source in addition to what?s included in the swap? Obtaining the swap is kind of time sensitive so I appreciate any and all input very much and would love to make this happen if it?s within my abilities. Thanks in advance everyone! -Jordan
