Which is better, Haynes or Chilton? And anyone have a Chilton for a 93 Van, or know where I could get one for a good price.

How about FREE chilton online. It was posted a few weeks back here on DF. Check out this thread.

Free is good but the factory service manual specific to your model year is about a million times better than either haynes or chilton.

How does 5 $ sound?

I have & still use Chilton's and Haynes and I have found that the FSM's are the best by a long shot. For my personal vehicles I have the FSM along with the Chilton and/or Haynes and find my self skipping them in favor of the FSM. (I have the Chilton and Haynes for my Impala and just the Haynes for my van. I do have a collection of those manuals for my customers vehicles I work on.)
