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?
