Hi Bob:

Good deal.

To save you some time, (because I've wasted a bunch): That base is a pre-1997 (GM style old body style). So it will fit a pre-1997 Gm van. So if you want to install it in a post 1997 van you will need to extend the blower area 2" higher (that's how Butler did it). In other-words, you can weld a 2" angle "riser" around the blower area. That will allow it to match the 1998-2003 V-8 small blocks.

On the 2003-up there were even more changes for the newer generation motors.

Sincerely,
Dale
