What are the different types of Muncie input shafts and countershafts?
From left to right are the three basic Muncie input shaft/countershaft combinations. On the left is the M20 countershaft and 10-spline input shaft. In the middle is the M21 countershaft and input shaft. On the far right is the M22 26-spline input shaft. In the 1970s, virtually all Muncie four-speeds had 26-spline input shafts.
When did the Muncie M22 have a 10-spline input shaft?
The standard 10-spline input shaft found its way into new Muncie M20 and M21 transmissions from 1971-’74. 9. Here’s another view of the M22’s input shaft and countershaft.
What is the ratio of the Muncie M21 transmission?
The 2.20:1 ratio first gear is usually referred to as the Muncie M21 transmission; based on GM’s production codes. The 2.56:1 ratio is referred to as the M20.
What is the first gear on a Muncie transmission called?
The 2.20:1 ratio first gear is usually referred to as the Muncie M21 transmission; based on GM’s production codes. The 2.56:1 ratio is referred to as the M20. Muncie also had a second close-ratio transmission coded M22 and known as the “rock crusher,” which was used behind performance big-block engines and in some Corvettes.
