B230 into 73 142 140-160

Hello volvo peeps,

I just picked up a complete b230 engine for free. Was wondering what is
involved in a swap into my 73 142 or if it is worthwhile. I was considering rebuilding
the stock b20, but I want a healthy amount of horsepower and I don't know
if I could get what I want without spending too much with the b20. I know the swap has been done but I can't find much info on how much fabrication is involved. Or if anyone
has any personal experience with this..
