Transmission swap - Auto to Manual
I am thinking about swapping out my TH400 in my 1969 GTO with a muncie 4 speed. I am wondering how much I am looking at changing, such as driveshaft etc. I have a Pontiac 400 engine and as I said, the TH400 transmission. Also, what are the pros and cons of a m20, m21, or m22. Which would be the better choice?

As far as I know the main difference between the M-20 and M-21 is that the 20 is a wide ratio and the 21 is a close ratio. And the M-22 "Rockcrusher" has straight cut gears which makes it stronger and noisier.

Driveshaft and yoke, trans crossmember and mount. Then you will have to wire up an electric switch for the kickdown, and of course a shifter and maybe a reverse and neutral safety switch. It's a real ****** gettin run over by your own car. Of the Muncie 4-spds the one to use on the average muscle type street car is the 2.54 low wide ratio. The M-22 is way overrated, noisy, and has a 2.20 low gear. This is ok if you have a 4.10 or better.
