Removing a 318 from a van
I took several motors out of B vans. I aways took them out of the passenger door, taken off. As stated, disconnect all front equipment, plus carb and valve covers. Motor needs to be rotated to clear dog house opening. Need a tight chain to clear dash. Just remember to change oil pan and pickup from the 318 to your 340 or a pan from a 360 truck or van before installing if it is to be a 360 swap. Motor mounts are also different from a 318 to a 340 or 360. I tweak mine to fit a 340. A short oil filter will fit without the adapter.
