!242TDi-
Did you start a thread on 4btswaps?
Before starting the d24t in the 7xx car I would highly recommend having a friend there to help. The reason I say this is because the VE pumps have a common issue with the governor assembly getting sticky from sitting. I have had 3 cases when the IP would not self limit the fuel causing the engine to run high RPM, and in one horrible case a D24T engine I was going to install in my 244 revved sky high and something let go destroying the block and head ( look up kibbles and bits thread). I would have the air cleaner assembly removed from the turbo and have a friend holding a piece of wood to block off the intake if the engine decides to run away. It is fairy unlikely but it can happen.
As for putting the D24t in the 242 it should be fairly easy. I would modify the 242's crossmember to fit the D24t oil pan. and fab up some new mount perches on the crossmember so you can use the d24t mounts. There are several members here that have a d24t in there 240's, all swaps are different. A 242 would be really cool with a D24T+IC+T5.
