Default Jaguar w/ an LS1?

I have always liked the Jag XJ-S cars. My cousin had an 88 that he dropped a 350 into a few years ago and it was one hell of a machine. I am looking at a white 88 that is on a lot down the rod from my house. Would make a great open road race car. But I am wondering if anyone has tried dropping an LS1 into one of these yet? Anyone have any ideas?

I believe two of the issues are the oil pan and exhaust manifold clearance.
