Will the 200 handle that better, or should I bring it down to 3.5's or 3.25's now that I have the bigger motor going in? Will a completely stock 200 push the van with a load with 3.25's and the C4 auto?

And then its just reworking the throttle linkages...
So, if I had to choose one modification, header or carb? I'm probably going to do both... but if just one, which one?

That kit is designed for the 4 cylinder import cars and trucks yes those adapters won't fit a Ford 200 head without milling the head. They did work great on the numerous little 4 cylinder import engines that I used them on. If your budget is tight you could just use the late exhaust manafold and 1946 Holley carb thats already on your new engine. Plus it will have the DuraSpark II distributor just bolting it in as is going to be a great improvement over your 170. Good luck
