Re: '50 chevy 3100

if you stripped it with vinegar I would seal it.

when I pull engines and trans together I use two sets of chains, short ones to the rings and then I wrap one around the trans at the bellhousing twice and then to the hook. I use a couple grade 5 bolts to tie the chains together and give it a test lift a couple times to make sure its lifting even and doesnt slip.

dont forget, when you pull the driveshaft you will have a crime scene of trans fluid, I like to cut the driveshaft right at the yoke but if you dont want to cut it you can separate the u joint there, then tape the yoke in the trans to make sure it doesnt fall out.
