It's not that you CAN'T do it that way, it's just going to be a lot more work than just buying a V8 and putting it in the car.
You'll probably need stiffer springs in the front of the car at the very least, you'll definitely need a new fuel pump, you'll need a new harness,trans cross member... It'll take a little research to get a list of everything together, and it isn't necessarily hard.... it's just gonna end up costing more than buying a car with a V8 in it already.
If this is absolutely what you want to do, I'd say you should get an LQ4 or LQ9 instead of the LT1 or LS1. It'll end up costing a little more, but it would be different at least, and (in my opinion) worth the extra expense and hassle.
As for the twin turbo stuff; doable, but costly.
