I think so.... I know at least a couple have been built before.

Baxter's building a 3.0 jobbie at the mo too.

340cid is 5.7 litres, thats surely going to be too big to put in a teeny hatchback..

I don't see why some V8's wouldn't fit. They're only 4 cylinders wide, and the V6's fit the front-to-back dimension so it has to be possible. Viable maybe not but possible yes.
