Turbo is the same on the OBS van but the SD (99-03) vans they are different. Oil cooler might be different. Other than you should be good to go.

Started stripping the new engine of its unwanted components tonight.
Oil cooler is different. To be exact the end with the filter mount is different. It points the filter straight down, whereas the truck one points it into the side of the oil pan, which concave at that point, so the filter clears the front differential. These still have to be swapped.

And I took a set of calipers to my truck downpipe ans its 3". Not sure whose pipe but its deffinitely not stock. And the rest of the exhaust is 3.5" all the way back.
