'88 300E engine swap?

How hard would it be to install a 5cyl MB diesel engine and transmission from an early 80's 300D into an '88 300E that currently has a (bad) gas engine/trans? I'm pretty mechanical and have done several engine swaps but mostly on GM and Ford. I realize there will be wiring differences that would have to be addressed. Any other major headaches you can think of (like "it just physically wouldn't fit").
