I'm going to clarify a little bit. The VK hasn't been done in the s13 chassis, and I know people are doing projects for it in the s14 chassis.
Here is a VK swap in a S14 chassis.

You probably saw an older q45 engine VH41 or VH45 engine in a s13. The VH 45 engines barely fit into an s13. A 5.6litre VK engine has 98mm bore and a 92mm stroke. The old VH engines which barely fit into the s13 chassis had a 92mm bore and a 88mm stroke. That means that deck height on the the VK engine is also raised for it's larger stroke. This means that the hood clearance won't work well with the little s13 chassis. Now I've also been told that a VK is also taller than an LS1 and an LS1 has very similar stroke to the VK, LS-1 BORE and STROKE; 99mm bore and 92mm stroke.
The Formula Drift drop top 350 (Chris Foresburg) also uses the VK56 swap and it's pretty bad ass against ford mustangs and chevy corvette, I wouldn't mind seeing a 1/4mile time.
