A 1990 should be EFI. The GM 1 ton van platform is close to bullet-proof, very simple and very proven. Quite low tech.

My 1990 Pleasure-Way is based on the same platform (146" wheelbase).

GM 350 small block with FI, 3 speed Turbo 400 and 12-Bolt differential. Hard to fault for its reliability and ease of servicing. According to my GM service manual, some models may have been built with the 4 speed auto transmission. I'd prefer the 3 speed over the 4 speed.
