i've done it, my setup had a cosmo main pulley and standard FD alternator and pulley. The bolts line up but you need to studs from an FD front cover or some long bolts as the FD waterpump housing is about a half inch thicker than the FD one. The gasket and everything is the same

Yes, it will fit, with the longer studs. THe connection at the front iron is the same bolt pattern and gasket/passage size. There should be no interference with the front cover or CAS, but I've never verified. The housing is not any wider than an FC housing, just thicker/deeper. THe lower outlet MAY hit the front cover but I sort of doubt it.
OF course you'll need the FD alt, thermostat housing, altered radiator hoses, and FD crank pully with a spacer made up to replace the thickness of the trigger wheel you won't be using on the FC. Also the FD alternator bracket is different so you should use it. With no air pump and a stock WP pulley and crank pulley, you need a 29-29.5" 4 or 5 rib belt.
EDIT: I have all this stuff available if you need to buy...I even have greddy waterpump and alternator pullies I can sell.
