I was discussing this with my auto shop teacher last week and basically you need a V formation engine so that it will remain balanced when you deactivate the cylinders. I didn't take it any further than that because I have an inline 4, but if it was to be a backyard project I am not so sure it's easy as pulling the spark plugs because I think the ECU would still be telling the injectors to send gas in there.
