I looked at this myself originally. I haven't seen it done though.
Yes the block and an F16, 18 or 20 gearbox will bolt into an allspeed frame.
The inlet and turbo exhaust manifold are going to be your main issue. You will probably need a clubman front end to get it all to fit and you will either have to make some serious bulkhead modifications to get it to fit or you will have to build your own manifolds.
You will also have to look at swapping the flywheel so a clutch can be used with the F16, 18 or 20 gearbox. I've been told that the C20let flywheel doesn't bolt up but the C20let crank fits in the Z20let block so if it is true you may have to swap the entire crank and flywheel over.

Jason Gwynne's mini has a C20LET which is basically the same engine minus the later ecotec engine....
