Apparently this is a way to get some stronger gears in there. There was/is an Italian gear company who manufacturers stronger M22 gearsets with a greater level of detail (apparently) than what Muncie themselves did. I couldn't find a ton of solid details on them but did find several 4 speed/Muncie rebuilders/sellers who sell them for about $500-600 a set. But, if I am going to dump $1000+ into ANY tranny, I figure it not be a Muncie.... you can dress up a hooker with Gucci shoes and bag but she is still a hooker.
And my pit crew is getting kinda big then.... puts some more pressure on said driver to perform.
