A 2JZ or LS isn’t different. If you told someone you did a swap and then popped the hood, no gear head would be surprised or in awe to see another 2JZ or LS engine. Those are the two most popular swapped motors.

Could it be done? Yes. You could tuck the radiator and recess the engine into the firewall. You could try to add weight to the rear, so it wasn’t front heavy. I’ve seen a 1000hp 2JZ truck on TheRacingChannel or somewhere put sand bags in the bed, so it would get traction on the highway.

Just pour concrete in the bed and put a bed top on it.

Oof what about a 13b swap? I feel like with the size it could work.
