You are going to want to tell us if youre going for mild or wild. Your driving type and other details. Most likely you'll want low end torque so do a search for a bit and read up. I know aggressive ted has a torquer build and dadtruck done a lot of research on his which is told to be a stump puller.

Backing way, way up...

What are your transportation needs? Why do you want to meet that need with a 40 year old van?
