You may get every engine imaginable in response ,, you should first decided what you need and then what you want ,

if you want to use the LQ9 it should not be any problem ,
you can get a cable setup if you wish from about 2004-up full size vans and other vehicles and add an IAC , couple other items , reprogram the PCM and be good to go

It will be used for towning 10k plus, Hot rodding, off roading, Mudding. Daily Driver
Hot rodding and off roading/towing 10k are usually extreme opposites if hot rodding is intended for the sense of speed on surface streets.

Decide what your primary/most used purpose will be, then decide on what power plant.
