The Sherman with the Chrysler Multi Bank (M4A4?) actually had a hull modification as it was some inches longer in the engine compartment to fit it in. Many thousands of tanks were produced with that power plant so it must have been viable or there was a gap to be filled that couldn't be filled in a more expedient manner.
I have no idea how they performed in comparison to other engines and would be curious to know.
