Hmm, my 78 E150 (Ford Econoline van, "Club wagon" full window/passenger
config with the rear seat missing for years) came with a 120A stock... 
Now the 1992 Explorer XLT 4.0L only has a 65, but it appears to deliver
more than that if you really need it.

Hmm... No ford wagon I know of will do 140, especially not with a stock
351W and any non-babyvax in the back.

Well, it'd be rather nice but hard to find ethernet/telephone hookups in
Ford Wagons these days...  Cellular is too damned expensive (else I'd
always be driving on IRC with voice dictation software :)

PS - If anyone wants to buy my van - make offer.  Its good to haul vaxen
around in, and I can make it run :)
