Congrats! Yeah..that's about right on the left side clearance. Make sure you get a heat shield out of a donor van or it's going to get quite warm on that side. smile

Just like the small block Chevys.With a small amount of work/ money a 360 can run strong and get decent to good gas mileage.
Your rear gear ratio has allot of effect in this statement.

my future plans include a 4 barrel and edelbrock intake. Maybe a mild rv cam and maybe an ignition upgrade. Hate headers so i will leave the manifolds where they are. hopefully that will make a nice running van.

The low end torque /RV cam is the key to good performance, gas mileage.
A good flowing/correct size exhaust after the manifolds is also help full.
