B5244S engine swap compatibility

I have a 2000 S70 with a blown engine. I'm looking to replace the blown engine but not sure what B5244S engines are compatible. I've found an 02 S60 B5244S but not sure what the differences are.
Can anyone tell me what engines are compatible?

I found this list of vehicles with this engine
B5244S
Naturally Aspirated. The B5244S produces either 142 hp (106 kW; 144 PS) at 5400 rpm with 152 lb·ft (206 N·m) of torque at 3600 rpm, or 167 hp (125 kW; 169 PS) at 5700 rpm, with 170 lb·ft (230 N·m) of torque at 4500 rpm. It features intake cam VVT on 2000- models.
Applications:
1993 - 1997 Volvo 850 2.4
1998 - 2000 Volvo S70 2.4
2000 Volvo V70 2.4
2001 - 2003 Volvo S60 2.4
2001 - 2003 Volvo [COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue !important]V70[/COLOR][/COLOR] 2.4

99-02 should all be identical.

Just be sure that the engine you source has VVT on the INTAKE side of the head as some of the NA99s had no VVT at all ( I owned one) . As long as it's a B5244S and not a B5254S you should be OK.

This motor was not fitted to pre-2000 model year cars unless they were an early release late in '99
