How strong is the Muncie 3 speed manual trans?

Hello. Like it says. Are they strong lil guys?

Thanx.

 

should be. how much torque are you using. remember muncie was used
with big block chebbies and olds. jim

 

Thanx for the reply. I was just thinking of manual trannys again. A 3 speed Muncie came in full size trucks (I think), with a 3:1 first, .57 2nd, and 1:1 third. Until a Richmond five speed can be had, it would be a good temp and get ya' shifting gears. Richmond 5 speeds are cool, 3.28:1 first, so fwy gear-happy.

Thanx. again.

 

I just so happen to have one of these 3 speed muncies for sale. Cast iron case. Very strong units.:TU:

 

I got my wheels turning. But shipping from New Jersey to California would cost more than the trans. probably.

Thanx Joe.

 

The trans is in illinois. I bet it wouldn't be more than 65 dollars.

 

Hey Joe. Is it in good, useable condition? Do you know if it is the 3:1 first gear?

 

John. I bought it on evilbay last year and the guy told me I should've gone through it, but claimed it was good.

Not sure whats in it but when it gets a little warmer, my buddy that has it will post us some pictures. So stand by.
