you gotta completely reshape the sump iirc, the vans have a more upright engine and you can't use the 4k sump because the block is wider. also i know someone who has snapped a k40 with reasonably sedate driving and a mild as f@$k 4k.

you need to modify the sump and use the van engine mounts but tbqh i'd just chuck the 4k manifolds and dizzy on it as far as wiring goes. the bellhousing is the same as a 4k afaik, but if you are running a standard gearbox and diff you will snap them, i'd source the gearbox bellhousing from a manual 7k van and use the gearbox and crossmember off an rt142 corona or xa6x celica. if you really wanna go efi, keep the loom and shit off the van and use a lift pump and swirl pot with a vl turbo fuel pump. i've been researching the swap for my own ksev so if you wanna pm me for advice go ahead
