Does anyone know anything about swapping a turbo engine into an older 140? I have a dead 140 that is dying for tons of power!

Do a search.
on page 2 (I think) of this category i posted about this very topic. I think you use a b20 oil pan (on a b23 block) and modify early 140/122 engine mount brackets to fit the bolt pattern of the b23 block. the engine will be upright so you either need to cut and weld a b23 bell housing to accomodate the upright engineor use a b20 bell housing and a m40/41 or a t5 and adapter plate.
