Ethical: let's go for practical instead. There are a couple
examples of planes which are the same airframe, one 320 one
360. So it works. Well? Big hit in climb rate, esp. w/
fixed pitch prop. All performance figures must be reworked.
Twin? I imagine all sorts of critical numbers (Vmc etc)
would need to be carefully established.

Good luck,

i doubt very seriously whether you could get approval for
fixed pitch prop in any case. the engine out performance
would be doubly abysmal -- first for the lowered hp, and
second for the lack of ability to feather the dead engine.
