Yes.

It's not exactly a hard swap.

I never have actually seen pictures of it - but I've never looked for it either.

Shouldn't be a hard swap at all since both engine bays are the same size. Both cars are on the same chassis.

Yeah, but you're putting a LOT of weight on the front end to do that swap. If all you care about is straight lines, that's one thing, but if you're into turning corners, you'd be better off building up your b-port.
