Any 3 speed transmission from 1988 to 1995 should bolt up to the 3.0 engine. To replace the engine and trans from another van would take a lot of work and money. The only problem you may have with the 3 speed trans is the lock up torque converter.

If you have wire connector going into the case of the transmission, next to the dip stick tube. Then you have a lock up torque converter.
