It can be done. GMC's came with the big 305 V6's in them.
A kid I went to high school with has a 1960 swb fleetside small window "custom" Apache with all the chrome trim. He dropped in a 396 big block that he had bored over to a 409 backed by a built Th400 trans. Boy that truck could scoot down the road. The last time I seen the truck was about 7 years ago, and I ran into him last summer, he said he has only filled the tank up twice since. If I remember right, his brother said it ran in the low 11's.
