Wow... I believe you can, but hell, I sure wouldn't want to be the poor slob that helps you. Just thinking about that makes me cringe. Typically, the easier the job, the better you'll do; rent out an engine hoist and pull that baby out before working on it. What's wrong with the crank?

And seriously,
Junk the engine, find a good running later model engine (2.8/3.1/3.4) and swap all the stuff.
It can be done, YET the MAJORITY OF US HERE
will offer sound advice of not doing the job the way you are thinking
NO MATTER what the end solution will be (better engine or more power).
Rethink your current solution.
