I know where there is a van with a 413 in it, and used to own one with a 426 wedge. Seems to me you just use 61-71 Sweptline truck motor mounts. Here are some pics of it. I don't think the engine cover fits real well with an RB in it...

The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

Dog house will not fit without some serious modifications.

By the looks of the seat brackets, the doghouse cover isn't the only thing that won't fit with some major modifications, add seat brackets, floor pan, throttle and trans shift linkage, exhaust and cooling system for starters. The A100s were designed for slant 6 motors, when the added a 318, things got real crowded. An RB is almost 2x the width of the slant 6, at the exhaust manifold location, which happens to line up with the A100 floor pan.
Probably the main reason why the Little Red Wagon had its 426 mounted in the box. Less space limitations. Gene

That's a big piece of cake!
