I reccon you could swap in a 3sge without too much hassle.
You have the perfect base for conversion. Take the sump/oil pickup from the 2s-c. Use the 2s engine mounts, use the 2s/W5x bellhousing (needs to be shaved to have input shaft sit in spigot bearing you need to install), use your current g/box, use the 2s flywheel.
You will have to get a tube to run from the back of the motor to the front for radiator/coolant. Also the dizzy sits on the back of the cam, modification is required here too, but can be overcome in many ways.
All this info I have done from many hours of reading/research. If anyone has more info to share, I would greatly appreciate it.
3sgte is a different can of worms.
EDIT: Forgot to add, the intake manifold will foul on the bonnet, will need to be cut up and rewelded to sit lower and clear the bonnet. Extractors may have to be custom made, stock exhaust manifold may be usable, 2s exhaust manifold will not bolt on.
