Agree with thunder.

I've also had both and wouldn't go back to the 3.0.

Do some mods to the 4.2 and it will fly without sacrificing fuel economy.
Do a search, there's heaps of info.
Cheers.......4by.

Go with the 4.2, that is unless you want an excuse to go for another engine later... My ZD30 is getting a 6.5L Chev as I type!
