Welcome. Please tell us more about yourself, your car(s), etc... We'll be less likely to kick you to the curb then. :)

'90 FWD TSi. Getting ready to swap motor/tranny into a '90 AWD TSi. And yes, I have a '99 F250 Super Duty that's in the process of getting a Cummins. Pics of the DSM's are here. http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/super4x4duty/my_photos.

I have several. I'm gonna start off with a VE pumped 12V just because fuel is so high. This engine gets ~25mpg in the Dodge that it's in with an auto and 3.54 gears. I also have an '01 24V motor that is getting a '96 P-pump and twin turbos. The F250 has a ZF6 and 3.73 gears. The Powerstroke ran high 15's w/1.9x sixty foots.
yeah, if i baby it with 3300# car, and 2200# trailer, i can get up to 17mpg on 4.10 rear end. without the trailer on there babied i can get 23mpg ... but i average 17.2mpg overall towing/daily on the truck.
Sounds like you have done some research on which to go with. 12V ones are a bit more durable, key is going to be your trany. as in if i swaped the trany on my truck and went just with a better torq converter i'm looking at 30whp 75tq increase from that alone and another 2mpg . i got 2001 dodge ctd 2500
