It's been done, but you'll have better luck in the conversions/hybrids section.

RS's are V6 cars, however I do agree that it would be MUCH easier and less expensive to part out the SS, sell the RS and just buy a LS1 car. The underhood portion of the swap may not be that bad, but the in car wiring may be a nightmare.
