B280 to Turbo swap 700 1988

Since i have had no luck in identifying a positive cause for the oil pressure issue i was thinking about swapping the motor out. This got me wondering how hard it would be to swap in a turbo. How much of the current electronics e.t.c. can be used or would it be a lot easier to swap in another B280? If i can upgrade to a turbo without it becoming a major undertaking i would gladly do it. I am willing to sacrafice some expediancy for a more common motor with more power.

Thank you all again,
Jesse
