An excellent resource, written by the best in the biz
Great book, written by one of the best in the business. Even after rebuilding several Muncies, I still refer back to it all the time. This is an excellent resource to have in your shop.

Worth it’s weight in gold !! Truly a book of Muncie information.
This book is fantastic. Full of information I’ve needed that you cannot get from a video. The author, Paul Cangialosi is top of his class when it comes to these transmissions. This book is worth its weight in gold. Highly recommended !

Top Notch Book.. Extremely well written how to book..
This without a doubt the best book on all things Muncie related. I have dozens of so called "how to" books that are usually only a bunch of facts thrown together which leave you to try and piece it all together. This book quite well written so that even a modestly skilled mechanic can get a grip on one of the most complicated tasks they may ever have to do. I had some problems with my M20 recently so I started to try and get some experienced info on the internet with very little help. Mostly incorrect and or bad info is out there and this book has already answered a couple of major questions on what parts to order. In my case just because what parts came out of the transmission aren't necessarily right parts in the first place. Earlier replacement parts were put in that were incorrect. I had a non thrust loaded max capacity front input bearing in my M20. The cage had separated which was chewed up and all the balls were loose and even the inner and outer race were cracked. I almost ordered and put in the same non-thrust loaded bearing that was incorrectly put in. This book explained the differences with the styles of bearings and which ones to use for your type of Muncie. The book not only covers how to rebuild and all the correct part # it also has nice section on the history of the Muncie transmission. All the part stampings on the various years so you can figure out what type/year you might have. And oh yeah, one more thing. It even has a great section on how to break down, clean and rebuild your Hurst shifter. I almost never write reviews but this book and guy deserves the good credit here. Can't thank you enough Paul for this great book!! Cheers

Awsome! Must have! Buy now!
Must have book! Author not only gives a step by step, but also educated you on how to identify parts that are worn that would affect performance... book recomends auto gear parts. They are still in business but you have to order parts on the phone. They delivered quality american and italian made parts for the same price as the chinese knockoffs on the net. Book has good quality photos and is clearly written. Didn't use the high performance sections but read through and they seemed like they were top notch!

I was amazed at the information I have ingested in 10-15 minutes
Wow. I made it through the introduction & the 3rd page of part 1. I was amazed at the information I have ingested in 10-15 minutes. I bought this book to get some general information on something I've never touched before. The Muncie M-21. I have one stuck behind a 350 sitting in a 1970 Chevelle in the garage, sitting next to a 1969 El Camino with a 350 backed by an automatic. I have no idea what the Muncie M-21 has for me, but I know when I pull her out & set her up for a rebuild, I want to have some knowledge background of the tranny so I can communicate with those I choose to do the rebuild. I know what I'm up against as I've already had the El Camino in to 3 different shops for rebuilding, & none of them could handle the task of a 1969 Turbo Hydra-matic 350, which still needs rebuilding today due to a leak. Everyone seems to think they can fix it, but nobody including myself is up to the task. I am doing the learning curve on the Muncie, & am impressed on what I have learned already. There is no doubt in my mind that Paul will be honest & thorough as I all ready get the feeling we are sharing the same values. From what I've read, than you for a great informative book :}

Excellent book for the re-builder or tinkerer
I have a Munci in my '74 GTO and want to take it out and inspect it after last summer's run. I found the author on You Tube and liked what he had to say and how he presented the subject of rebuilding, so ordered the book to have it at my side while tearing it down. I was very pleased with the content of the book and the fact that it includes many extras such as how to identify your particular Munci, as there were a few. Pictures and explanations are excellent. Great book!

This is a must for every first time Muncie rebuilder
This is a must for every first time Muncie rebuilder. A oot of clear pictures make it easy to understand. So far I have disassembled the gearbox but I'm confident that I can assemble it.

Libro perfetto per chi lo deve ricostruire o modificare.
Ottimo libro in lingua inglese dove poter trovare tutte le informazioni su come ricostruirlo professionalmente oppure modificarlo. Copre tutti i Muncie a 4 marce. Consigliato.

Sehr Informativ
Im Netz hatte ich schon einige Infos zu dem Getriebe gefunden. So ein Buch ein mit in die Garage nehmen ist allerdings einfacher. Das Buch hat mir beim Entschlüßeln der Gehäusenummern und bei dem einstellen vom Schaltgestänge geholfen. Überholen muss ich das Getriebe zum Glück noch nicht.
