I'm sure given a surplus of money and time, just about anything is possible.

The Mod motors are wider, but you may have trouble with the height. C6 may have a some trouble with the floor depending on how low you can get the crank centerline.

Here's some inspiration. Not sure about the later year mustangs, but this might be a good place to start looking for info.

Doesn't really seem to be much out there as far as FE's in the 99-04's. Saw one forum where the guy wanting to put a 428 FE into his 01 was talked down because it was "too expensive" and "too hard to make it fit".
