Also, I can't figure out what rear engine mounts i need. Engine is original 216 with 4 on the floor. I can't seem to nail the answers down using online retailers information. thanks 4 any help.

That is what is in my 1 Ton. 1951 GMC 1 Ton Flatbed -- It is finally on the road and what a great time I have driving it! 1951 1 Ton Completed My Chevy Master 4 Door is on the Road!
