Brave move, no idea how to do it, but good luck if you try.

Short answer = No

Long answer: Amongst other problems your V8 will have too much compression ratio to run any effective boost pressure at all, rebuild the engine with lower compression (for which there probably aren´t any parts readily available - the S/C V8 is 4.2l remember). Once that is sorted you´ll "just" need to sort fuelling and ignition..... Cheers
