Re: New Muncie
Except for the funky final gear set, it sounds like your standard "Super Case" Muncie...I'd like to hear from someone who runs one....we had the discussion over at the Pure Stock site about M20 versus M21, and it was agreed that most folks had found that the bigger 3-4 drop with the wide ratio trans cost them some ET/MPH...cool alternative, though.

Re: New Muncie
Kind of expensive...they can be built cheaper than that.

Re: New Muncie
I would agree with Belair.
Besides, I would build a 2.72 or 2.96 ratio instead of the OD. I have built a few 2.96s for 302 Z cars and it is a night and day difference in the way the car drives. It makes a 3.31 rear drive like a 4.56 and a M21.  Besides overdriving a gearset puts more strain inside the trans case. Even though the Supercase is strong enough to take the stress, the cluster is always under load in an OD trans, because it has no "coast" position. This is just my $.02 on the topic. Eric
