BB and MC in Volvo 140

Does a Volvo 240 brake booster and master cylinder work in the 140 without modifications? It will be going in a 74.

The 4-bolt pattern is the same between the 240's firewall and the 140's extension arm. You'd have to at least modify it to accept the longer input rod. Don't know if it uses the same brake line fittings, but they're in different places. Sorta thought about it as a backup plan after I finished off two '74 brake boosters, but never got to doing test fits before my '74 itself bit the dust.
