If
"the goal here is mpg with peppy power"

then my opinion would be to
sell the parts you already have,
and buy a complete
1992-1995 5.2 Magnum V8 package
out of a van that had the 36RH transmission.

I know the tendency to hold on to older machinery,
I have that too,
but you would probably give up at least 4 MPG
at steady highway speeds.



You know I thought about that too but, then the 318 is #s matching to my car.
