Late model Ford Van with larger v8

I am looking for a 2012-14 Ford cargo van. The issue is that it seems that 90%+ of those for sale are 4.6 liter v8. With a 4x4 conversion I just think that the 4.6 is a bit underpowered. Are there any 5.7 v8 available? What are people buying these days for Ford 4x4 van conversion? I've looked locally, truck trader and Autotrader.

Re: Late model Ford Van with larger v8

5.4L is the "big" V8. Ford never made a 5.7L, and the last year for the 5.8L was '96.

FWIW the 5.4L is standard in the E350. If you are planning a full build, you will want the E350 anyways.
