2.3turbo into C900?

Right i know that people have retro-fitted the 2.3 head onto the c900 2 litre block because of better flow characteristics but what i want to know is will the 9k 2.3 turbo engine fit onto the C900 gearbox?.
I would presume that as the 9000 engine sits transversely that it would have its own sump unlike the C900's integrated gearbox sump, will the gearbox bolt pattern fit the 9000 block with its sump removed?
My bottom end's on the way out so if im going to swap the engine i might as well get the best base to work from!!
Failing this im going to try to find a engine from a 9000 turbo auto as i think these engines will have had a easier time due to the shift characteristics of the auto box, i presume these have the same bolt spacings to enable me to fit one straight to a C900 box?
TIA for any replies!
Pete.
