Do some research on Monster Miatas. They have Ford 302s in them, and if the 302 fits, I can't imagine the LSx wouldn't. You can also find some info in what they use to make the drivetrain hold. I think they use Thunderbird center sections for the rear suspension. Obviously you will need to do something about the brakes, but I would bet there are kits out there for that as well.
My wife has a Miata, and I've always thought a nice Chevy 4.3 or the supercharged 3.8 out of a FWD Bonneville or such would make a cool swap.
