There is little you can think of to ask, that hasn't been asked and answered.

Short answer is, yes you can.
I'll point you in the right direction. Check out this thread
https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/engi...swap-read.html
Also I would find out that engine. It is mostly a LS1 or LT1
For LS1 - https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/ltx-...want-swap.html
For LT1 - https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/ltx-...questions.html
