Anyone ever put an SC engine in an 87-88 TC?

I have an 88 Tbird TC than I cannot seem to get rid of, and instead of dropping in a weak 2.3L turbo, I was thinking about dropping in a SC engine. I also have a WC T-5 tranny to bolt up to her, and was wondering which clutch/pp and flywheel I should use. I know I will need all the wiring harness and SC stuff (engine harness, ect..). I know that my year TC was also available with a n/a 3.8L, so I know it will physically fit into the car with not much issue. I wanted to use a set of stock or aftermarket 3.8L Mustang headers and custom 2.5" dual exhaust.

Is this do-able? I like for my cars to be unique, and I think this would fit the bill just right. I also like for them to be powerful, and I know the SC's engine is more than willing when running right.

Opinions and advice are welcome.

Thanks and God bless.
