M-22 Italian gear sets
 

Has anyone used or have any information on the M22 gear sets made in Italy? I am considering converting a spare M-21 to this configuration. Thanks for the help.

I have heard nothing but good things about those gear sets and have a friend that runs high tens with a set in his '55. The trick that everybody seems to be doing is going with the rockcrusher gear set in the 2.5 ratio instead of the 2.20. It's supposed to be good for a solid two tenths in the quarter over the 2.20 set. Two tenths is two car lengths and we've all won or lost races by two car lengths, right?

Bill...I talked to Crash on the phone yesterday about the gears. I suggest you talk to him before you make a decision.The man knows Muncies.

I just learned of the 2.5 1st gear today on these M-22 gear sets, which is one of the reasons I want to run them. Up until now i thought they were the original 2.20 1st gear only. I don't know who Crash is. If I do this swap I think I am going to use a local guy who has a few of his customers running the Italian gear sets with good results. I am going to stick with someone local (CT) as shipping a trans is a problem

I put them in my M-22...they were cost effective as I needed first and third gear=$$$ Ed Hartnett in Pa did the job...he speaks highly of them.

And there's a seller named "jetboatbill" who rebuilds and sells rebuilt Muncies on eBay. A friend of mine bought a beautiful 1969 M-22 from him about five years ago. It came packed in a wooden box that's as nice as the tranny. "jetboatbill" can tell you about the Italian gearsets.

He changed his eBay ID to "mcs482." Here's one of his Muncie auctions underway:

If you're gonna put some decent power behind a Muncie you might wanna look into a SuperCase...but you should definitely holler at crash...
