Popular opinion is against chucking the 350, and I agree that it is not financially rational. I just got my paycheck though!
I think I am going to go with the diesel route. The engine has a 400TH transmission on it, but like everyone suggested I will probably upgrade to an overdrive transmission (700r4) Looks like a rebuilt 700r4 costs around 750 dollars. I will probably end up upgrading the transmission after I put the diesel in and make sure the engine is alright, and try biodiesel with the current 400TH trans.
What appeals to me right now is driving on cooking oil, to me it's hilariously awesome.
What about upgrading to a manual 5 speed? What trans would bolt on?
@drainoil, that's really smart. I have a bicycle and a motorcycle that I use to not drive the van.
