    I don't see how you can expect "honest answers" without giving us more information.
    Just for starters
    Amount of visitors per day, Concurrent users, and other modifications, any optimizations done.

    I would start with a P4 3.0Ghz, with atleast 1GB of ram. That should be enough to start with.

    any good dedicated host reccomendation for above P4 3.0/1GB that will work for vBulletin + vbSEO + drupal

    TIA.

    Are you looking for a managed/unmanaged host?

    What geographic location will your users be in?

    managed host as I am not very technical.

    50% of hits from US (even between east and west coast) and 40% from India and 10% distributed worldwide.

    Hmm, you may also want to consider a VPS, it might be a good way to get started if you do not want to dive right in to a full blown dedicated.

    A VPS with 384-512 Mb would do fine.
