all MV code 2.1 engines are the same , ( exhaust is different if in a
Syncro Van )

since both have manual transmission you'll be fine ..both engines will
have the right lower engine mounting studs (they're shorter on engines
that go with an auto trans, 'normal one's < sightly longer > go with
manual transmission. )

I should slide right in.  Somehow I always find things that need
attention though- either to the new engine or the van while the engine
is out.
