i'm using the 3.4liter incarnation of this engine and is so smoth runing
that even though my rear engine mounts are almost shot, the engine has not
killed itself yet(knock on wood)

oh yeah, and if any of you have heavier engines in your vanagons, for the
engine mounts, use old cut up tires with steel plate between layers of
tire... it works wonders for the response of the engine.

60-degree v-6's RULE!!!  sorry had to put that in.

laters, y'all

oh yeah, if any of you guys in ct, ma, southern-ny, any other states near
the tri-state area want to get together within the next 3 months, i'm up
for it. and so's my van :-)
