Build what you need. Build what you want. If you need something to haul the faimly nothing better than doing it in sytle. V8 style. If you can't use your ride the way you need to than it makes no sense in owning it.

Anything kinda small with a V8 in it is sweet in my book...

v8 astro vans are pretty cool, I remember the first time I ever saw one. It was like 6 years ago, I was in a parking garage in the the city up here. This thing sounded like a big block. Looked bone stock on the outside, but just had this radical idle to it which caught my attention. Go for it man thats awsome.
And you could probably fit a hot tub in the back, with a couple of blondes in it, you know what im talking about. ohhh yeahh

Go with it!! Build one EFI so it sounds a little better than that radical idle. It would keep your wife off your back. This would work to express the better FUEL ECONOMY of an EFI V8 motor in the van. You can show her the fun after it's done!
