Yes you can. Not quite a bolt in though. Bet you don't have the funds to do it though.

Use a lift and raise the engine up 50' and then "drop" it in. Guaranteed to fit like a glove!

you will have to do a lot of drilling try lifting the engine up 49' to 50' s it will probably cost about 50,000 thousand dollers step 8 enjoy your new engine
