2.8 V6 to 427 engine swap?? possible?

i bought a 1987 firebird a few months back and i need to get rid of the V6 in it now because it was rebuilt horribly and most of the electrical isnt hooked up...i want to get a 427 from my friend and swap engines. has anyone done a swap of this size and if so, what needs to be done?
