arent 318 340 and 360s all small blocks and are they the same bell housing the same as /6
No, slant 6, small blocks and big blocks all have their own bell bolt pattern.
Also I believe the A100 vans use an odd transmission mount that mounts to the top of the tailshaft instead of the bottom. It might be tough to find a small block 727 for a van since the 6 is way more common.

i have a 67 a100 cargo van with a slant 6 auto and dash shifter vin t ag says a727 3spd auto i have a 72 360 out of a motor home and would love to swap it for my slant six so whats involved will the bell housing be the same motor mounts radiator ? also wondering about titles since aft 5 yrs my state destroys them
You will need to find OE or modify your /6 motor mounts.
You will also need a set of V8 brackets.
If it was a pre-66, it could have had the thick adapter for the /6 to a SBM 727. A 67 will have a /6 727. So you will need to find a short tail SBM 727 and swap your current tail housing OR find an A-100 V8 trans.
The throttle linkage is different too, along with the 'kickdown' linkage.
Since you are not displaying a state in your location, I can't answer that meaningfully, but in states with titles, the OWNER holds title, not the state.
