anyone ever replace a 6 cyl with a b230 driveline? 900 1991

I was wondering if a b230 could be put into a 6 cyl car without major issues. I figure at the very least it would require a computer from a b230 car, but does anyone know of other items that would need to be considered or redone in order to make this swap happen?

Dear woodstock,

Good p.m. and may this find you well. You'll likely also need a different transmission. The B6304 engine is mated with an AW30 or 43 tranny. The B230 engine is mated with an AW70/71/72 tranny.

Yours faithfully,

spook
