The vans use a different engine mount setup than trucks and the harness is a bit different as things are moved around a bit.

i thought it sounded fishy, but the guy claimed it was a 1995, 460/ 5 speed van. i may go see it, but i wont put too much effort into it. i wouldn't be surprised if it was an 85, lol.

Maybe he put a 5 speed in. A friend of mine put one in his 95 351 Van. and converted it to 4wd as well. Just saying it did not leave the ford plant with a stick
