2000 C70 engine swap
Volvo garage told me I might have a spun bearing and should replace the motor. Found a nice B5244T with low mileage but its out of a 2003 C70. Given that the motors are the same are there any issues that would prevent the 2003 engine working with the 2000 ECM?

If they're both B5244Ts you'll be fine. The C70 range were a little slow to take changes as most turbo LPT mills were B5254T with increased stroke to 2521cc by 2003. The B5244T is still a 2435cc capacity.
