Diesel Conversion 700 1987

I am interested in retrofitting my 740GLE wagon with a diesel engine. As I understand it, the Volvo diesel is actually a VW engine with an additional 2 cylenders. Is the bolt pattern the same on the VW engines and the Volvo Diesel engine? It seems to me that I could get a reasonably good price on the plentiful VW engine vs. a rarer Volvo diesel engine.
