I don't know for sure, but I don't think a FWD gearbox will mount to a FWD block. I also have absolutely no idea if the FWD engine mounts will bolt up. It's frought with lots of problems. Unless you get the engine for free, it probably won't be worth the hassle to attempt this unless you like hitting your head with a hammer.

Here are some photos of PrimerAl's RWD SR20 for his 240SUX:
