617 Turbo->240D 4-speed questions

[bgkast]

I have been reading through all of the threads on this topic I can find, and just want to make sure that I have identified all of the major steps.

1) Pull engines/transmissions
2) Have 240 flywheel balanced and use it to mate 4-speed transmission to 617 engine
3) Shorten drive shaft and shift linkages 4 inches
5) Install 617 engine with 4-speed transmission
6) Splice together electrical and vacuum systems

Some of the threads made the swap seem easy, others like a major pain. Should I expect a major headache? I am trying to decide if I want to attempt this or if I should just find a new 240 engine. Thanks –Bryan
