Skinnedknuckles 'Bolter S Joined: Sep 2014 Posts: 120 Apache Junction, AZ.	I have a '51 panel 3100. I want to install a 5.7L small block Chev engine and a 4L80E four speed automatic tranny. What rear axle(s) would you recommend? I have used the "search" and Tech Tip features but have not found the info I need. Jerry 1 1951 Chev Panel with a 350 small block, automatic tranny. 1 2004 Chev 2500 HD pickup... stock 1 1950 Chev 5 window pickup; 261 c.i. engine, 4 on the floor. With lots of time and money, any Stovebolt can be restored.
