The Saginaw and Muncie transmissions that were common in 60's and 70's cars were all the same length as a Powerglide, which I thought was the same length as a TH350.
If your van is the same as the '75 I once owned, the distributor is at least as far back as your knees are forward. Give or take a bit. The bellhousing would be a little further back, and the transmission winds up about even with your seat.
The shifter would be somewhere further back, almost behind the driver. You'd need a special shifter or maybe some wild linkage to make it work...
Pull the engine cover off and look at where the transmission sits and think about where that puts the shifter & linkage.

It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble... | | |
