I personally haven't seen it done, but would suspect that it would take quite a few modifications to make it fit. My understanding is that the modular v8 is a fairly wide motor, wider than an FE. There can't be more than a couple of inches of clearance on either side of my 427 before I'd start hitting things like the foot boxes and square tubes of the frame.

I'm sure it could be done with enough time and money, but doubt that it would be worth it if you are doing it to save money. As an engineering exercise, it might be interesting, but you'd probably really hurt yourself re-sale wise.
