Do the two vans use the same O2 sensor? Is it used pre cat in both setups?
If they do there is a chance that it will work.  Many O2 sensors are "tuned"
to work within a range that determines where the mfr sticks them in the
line.  They have specific temperature and sensitivity ranges that dictate
the minimum and maximum distance from the exhaust port.
