You can but you will have to make a slight modification to the firewall. All you have to do is indent it a little with a small sledge. I'll send you a link tomorrow to a buddy's build where he did the 2.5L/2.8L to 4.0L swap (A 4.2L and 4.0L are the same size/dimensions externally) so you can see what all needs to be done.
