The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Driveline What's the best rear axle to swap with?

I just finished a RE swap in my '52 3100 5 window. I used a '71 Nova RE. The width was perfect. The spring perches and shock mounts had to be fabricated but that was no big deal. While I was at it, I converted it to a posi and paired it with a T5 tranny. Now I'm cruising in 5th gear at 70 mph effortlessly.
