For a Dodge with a 360 V-8 I would suggest replacing that huge "20 gallon can" muffler with a glasspack, cherry bomb, or flowmaster type to increase MPG's and power.

Check out the air intake system. If you follow it through, you may find a lot of the air intake is blocked off by a plastic plate down in the inlet area. Remove that if it is on your model. My brother's 1997 had removed his and noticed a huge improvement. Also consider a different air intake system if available for that van.
