Dumb question or not?

I own a 2002 S-10 2wd with a 6 foot bed and standard cab. It came with the 4 cylinder and 5speed manual trans from the factory. I have the "crazy" idea of running stock. I may switch to automatic for trans, but it has to be a 4 speed auto. I did notice that there is an option for the 262cid motor but it is listed as NES and all the info only shows a 4x4 having the V6.
Since there is no engine specs does that mean that it is a bad combo or just that no one has gone to the trouble of finding the "best combo" for this engine?
Is this combo with either engine a feasible choice or a waste of time? I don't have 20+ thousands of dollars to buy a stocker and I like the slower classes.
I welcome any and all responses. Just don't yell at me to hard, LOL.
