Re: 91 crew
4.56 gears were available.
91 was the only square with a 4L80E The T-case should be a NP205 http://offroaddesign.com/catalog/Tra...ID%20Guide.htm Nice score!! I have a 91 SRW V3500 with a 6.2/4L80E/Np205 Dana 60 front and a 14 bolt rear, it has 4.10's. I wish it had the 4.56's

Re: 91 crew
Tonawanda is GM's engine plant in Buffalo, NY. Big Blocks were built for years at Tonawanda and they decided at some point to give them a special badge.... Some Small Blocks in the 60's had stickers with the Tonawanda logo as well....
Nice score with that drivetrain lineup though! |

I think you should drive it to Saskatchewan and leave it in my driveway. Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: 91 crew
thanks for the info. As for plans???? not sure dreams... well I could come up with all sorts there.... lol I have to many other projects that need to get done first. But someday I'd like to start wrenching on it. I have a 12 valve cummins, that would look good in there, and a round eye front clip for sure!!!!! maybe crew shortbox srw, or dually, Or who knows, time will tell.
