muncie or saginaw?

maybe them hillbillies should get some internet service.... hell the 300 bucks they save on a tranny would cover the first year of service... lmao

sometimes its hard to trust people selling stuff on the internet, its just easier to buy local and pay a little more.

and Keith, I'll give ya $150 each and I can probably find a muncie case for delivery to Cochran.

I agree but I give up about trying to use common sense on here.

I thought we all ran lightened trans, I didnt know anyone ever ran a oem muncie in a race car. Seems that wouldnt be wise since they sell all day long on ebay for 1000.

I also dont know where you would FIND a cheap saginaw. I FIND them in speedway catalog and when other racers sell them only. They are not in junk yards around here. But maybe everyone doesnt have 50 dirt tracks within 6 hours of their house!

I know from my own experience about cracking sag. And welding them and them re cracking next to the weld. Alum case is the way to go.

Now that the parts are 30+ years old I have seen some tracks throwing in that "Stock" classes must have 4 working forward gears. There was a guy in Florida that was cutting the 1st and 2nd and cutting them down to lighten them and sold a complete muncie with shifter for $650 and that was all new bearings fluid in them.

Use a high nickel rod when welding cast iron. We do it on equipment all the time. Yes its not the best way but it works just fine. If you were welding a chamber of a head that would be a different story.
