I believe you will be dealing with a different ECU after '88, along with elimination of the Hall sensor (crank pos sensor at rear of engine on 89>), along with diff fuel delivery. I moved an '89 motor into an '88 a few years ago under the guidance of a professional Volvo tech...would be reluctant to have pursued that without him.

More senior hands here know a LOT more than I do. It's certainly a 'do-able' swap, but not as straightforward as you may think.
