Thanks for all the intput, I'm prety sure I either want a 94-95 Cobra or an earlier 90's notchback. I just found out what was wrong with my van this weekend and should have it running tomorrow so I'll probably drive it for at least a few more months (hopefully) so I can pay off some bad debt and have more time to think about it. As far as the astrovan, it was running real messed up for the last week or so, I checked everything, the rockers were the last thing I looked at. One was bottoming out before it was even tight so I pulled the intake off and found a smopked lifter, it was concave on the bottom and the cam lobe was almost flat. I ended up getting a Comp Cams XE274 which has a little less lift then the RPM I had, but about the same as far as duration. Hopefully it'll help with torque, the vans a little heavy and I don't have gears in it yet.
