I have an 850 turbo with about 225000 miles which doesn't leak or use much oil. I've been using regular oil but my mechanic keeps telling me to switch to synthetic. I heard that switching in a hi mileage engine will cause leaks. Any advice?

Suppose I had an 85 non-turbo non-od 740 with a bad (automatic) transmission, and a nice transmission (automatic) from a turbo 87 740. The 87 trans is 3 and some inches longer overall than the 85. How smart would it be to try to replace the 85 with the 87? Driveshaft
