No one...?
What year/car did the turbo engine come from? If from a post '80 car, then the transmission will be different. The later transmission has it's advantages, BUT, you may want to inspect the B2 servo piston, which is MUCH easier to do before it's installed in the car. AND, there will probably be differences in linkages.
Most certainly there's a difference in the exhaust pipe coming out of the turbocharger. Also, I'm pretty sure the radiator hose connections are different. Though, you have a rather late non-turbo 300D, so, I'm not so sure about that.
If you still have access to the donor car, you can get it in there, with some ingenuity....

OK got the bad motor out. I picked up a turbo with it's trans attached. Now we need to put it all back together.
Soooo who's done this swap on a 300D?
