Yes it can be done.A guy I met from the Mt Pleasant,Pa. area has a car,57 Tbird that his dad built.He inherited the car.He drives a red 66 tripower GTO,has been on the cover of HPP,and races it at Norwalk.I saw the car at Idlewild Park for their yearly car show.The Ford guys were nuts when they saw the Pontiac.It was I think a 428 with 400 turbo.Using stock mounts the engine I think was off set to clear and the cast manifolds were notched to clear.The car was pink with the 'opera window'top.I don't remember the oil pan being modified.
