Engine Swap 700 1990

Let's say you have a 740 manual trans with a 16 valve B234 and a bent valve. How big of a task would it be to install an 8 valve NA B230? Would the wire harness be the same such that you could just swap in the proper ECU (from 8 valve NA car)? I know that the exhaust diameter would likely be different so some adaptation would be needed. What about the O2 sensor?
