Yes.

2 have been written up here.

There's enough room for a 4.3L V6 (like mine), if you do a 2" body lift, and move the rad forward.

The 2 V8's required more drastic mods that that. One had to push the firewall back a bit in one area, and the other had to widen the tranny tunnel/hump to get enough room.
