Re: M22W from four gear trans?

I cant give much "feedback" on the trans you are looking at, but will say that the biggest trouble with a Muncie trans are the ratios! Your close ratio trans is a 2.20 1st, while that does work with a 4.56 gear on the track, I would opt for a TKO 600 trans, go 3.42- 3.73 on the rear gear & take advantage of that lower 1st gear.....as well as the overdrive gear The spread on the gears will be wider.....but my bet is overall driveability will be better? just my thoughts....best of fun,crazyL
