What if I swap the 305 for a newer v6 262 (also carburated)? A 5.8 to 4.3L reduction?

Is displacement not the crucial factor?

A manual transmission would definitely be awesome, especially in a carburated engine when you can disengage the engine while driving downhill. I would assume that would save tons of fuel right?

Regarding the grill block, would that cause any overheating problems in a van like this?

What kind of mileage do you think I could expect?

What about the carburated diesel option?
