454 in a 52 1/2 ton??

Anybody ever put a Chevy Big block in a 52 Chevy truck with stock frame and suspension? I have a spare crate motor and have been considering putting it in my 52 with an automatic trans. but I do not want to mess with cutting the firewall or floorboard in the truck. Can this be done with an aftermarket cross member with side engine mounts and a new transmission cross member? I know all about tight fitting applications as I put a big block in my 56 sedan.. If I did not already have the 454... I would probably just order up a small block and make my life much easier.. Anybody done this swap?
