I think you should do it to the van, then, but you might want to consider the Duramax instead. The last post in this thread says it's a direct bolt-in:

Could go mid-engine/RWD, though...

Batteries look to be in the trunk so that's helpful. What's the difference in weight between a 6BT and a 427? OK--I checked. It's about 200lbs more.

6BT weighs at least 1200#. Wiki says the ford 427 all iron is 650#. With aluminum intake and water pump it drops to 600. With aluminum heads maybe 550?
