Swaping engines 700

I've got a 89 740 turbo with a manual trans. To save time I went to the junk yard and pulled a B230FT out of another Volvo. It had everything except the turbo. I found out that the earlier 740 have different sized main bearing than my model. I was able to determine that it was an 86 engine that I had pulled. My big qestion is; The trans in the car is a manual and the one I pulled was an auto. Are there going to be any surprises when I go to bolt the two up? basically do they share the same drive shaft?

Thanks
Barry

PS Love the car
