Your videos gave me much confidence in my refreshing of a very valued customer's M21 (my First Muncie). Transmissions are not a common thing I overhaul as an independent auto mechanic. I really appreciate your videos and contributions to the industry. You are truly a master of your trade. Thank you,

This was probably one of the most comprehensive and informative videos I have seen to date. I only wish I found it before I installed the hurst shifter in my 69 Camaro. Good stuff!

Like a lot of people I do not thank those who help me the most. I received my new Hurst shifter , laid everything out just as Paul did and went to work. My transmission was already in the car so it was a little different than in the video, but not much. I even took my laptop to the garage with me. You see, I am not much of a mechanic, but I installed the shifter in one day and never had to take anything off to adjust the linkage, it went on right the first time. Now my little 64 Nova two door hardtop is even more fun to drive and I am off to bigger projects. It always helps that I have had this car since 1967, never gets old, Thanks again Paul, doubt that I would have done it without you.

Your story is cool! You rebuilt the transmission while it was still IN THE CAR?! Wow. To think you had the car since '67 is also amazing.

awesome video! doing this on my own and at first i saw the instruction and i thought it would be impossible for me to do it but as i kept seeing the video it became easier by just staying patient and paying attention! i will be doing my first shifter on my chevelle! :)thanks

just bought back my 70 gs that i had as a kid, with a factory muncie and hurst. after watching this video, i was able to correct a binding shifter and mysterious neutral issue in under 5 minutes. thanks very much for your tips. cheers.

Great video. Pulled my muncie/Hurst setup out of my 69 camaro to change out the clutch assembly and needed a guide to make sure the shifter was setup properly when putting everything back together. This helped a ton!

This is a great video and i thank you Paul for always sharing your wisdom with us . Makes the job a cinch.

Great video. I'm reinstalling a 1968 Camaro motor with a 4 speed muncie, and someone else took it apart. This definitely helps me to put it all back together ... Thanks man

I took your advice and the trans stays in 4th gear now even with my hand on it while cruising. I can't thank you enough. We were going to have it rebuilt or do a swap locally. You saved us a lot of money. thanks for the video and tech help.

I applaud your hard work in putting these video's up. A wealth of information.

Paul I can not thank you enough. This video showed me exactly what I was doing wrong and fighting the install for a few hours. I was at a disadvantage as I was installing the shifter laying on my back. I had several things wrong and was at a dead end until I found your video. Thank you so very much!

It's been 21 years since I set a new Comp + shifter up like that. Thanks for the education and memories.

great video sir. I learned a lot. The Muncie is the only piece in my old Camaro (71) that has always been a mystery. This was very informative, and gave me what I needed to get the tail cover off to get to the speedo gear for changing.

Excellent Video, very helpful. I hung up my mechanic license 20 years ago and went into management (but a good mech always keeps his tools) This was easy to follow and understand, Mahalos.

Thank you. Adjusted my stops perfectly because of this info. You the man

I rarely comment on a video, but I feel compelled to now. This was this most helpful how to video Ive ever watched!! I followed along and installed mine (with your bushing and spring kit) as you went. It was done at such a reasonable Pace that I only had to pause a couple times. Thank you for what you do!! And to anyone wondering about the bushing a spring kit, stop.... Just buy it! The quality and fit is night and day.

Take a look under the car and see if reverse is actually moving.

Thank you for the video! My 1968 Camaro was "hanging up" when trying to shift from 2nd to 3rd gear. After watching, I had a much better understanding of how the entire mechanism worked. The 1-2 rod had a lot of play and after replacing the bushings and resynchronizing all of them to the neutral position, it shifts like never before. My only regret is not buying the steel bushings, as I needed to fix it within a certain timeframe. Thanks!

Thanks for the video Paul - I'm in the process of helping a friend put together a 1970 Z-28 Camaro, It has a 4-speed Muncie and I have to install a Hurst shifter which I never did before, But now after watching your video I'm a lot more confident, Thanks Again.

WOW! Just WOW! What a piece of information that is! Explained to me like I'm a six year old, just the way I need it to be.

That was more enjoyable to watch than any silly Marvel movie. My goodness, Paul, you are a great man! Thank you so much, I think I can figure out what is keeping my muncie from shifting into neutral and 1 through 4. Right now all she has is reverse. At least I have a starting place now and an idea what I'm looking at. Best Video on youtube!

Great video! I bought a 57 chevy and it had a 350 chevy engine and Super T10 that needed a new bushing kit as the stick was super sloppy!

Great videos

I'm an authorized Autogear reseller. So I build my own M22 type transmissions with their components and have had some design input into them as well. I DO NOT like the gear vendors system. The problem is I do not think the extension housing adapter has good alignment with the transmission and overdrive unit. Its very long and makes for a very short driveshaft and clearance issues. Your money is better spent on a Tremec TKO 600 5 speed.

Paul is the best

Awesome video, thanks. I'm swapping a Saginaw 3 speed for an M-20 in old C10, I haven't messed around with setting up shifters in years, your video was a great refresher, plus it's even better to learn a few tricks of the trade from guys who do this stuff everyday! I'm intrigued by the steel bushings you used, and how'd they feel in a daily driver or if they'd be overkill. Thanks again.

I sell a lot of steel bushing kits. I really have not had any complaints. The problem with the plastic bushings is that they are deteriorating fairly quickly and as a result causing poor shift feel.

Thanks, Paul, for a very thorough setup and adjustment process. I swapped an LS6 in my '72 Zee around 79 and replaced the old shifter with a comp plus (it had a steel alignment rod) it was a daily driver for me, many miles! I had a few occasions where the spring rod retainers at the shift fork lever would "disappear" and leave me in 3rd or 4th gear. After walking the shoulder, I would find a nail, and once another spring retainer, then I would crawl underneath and get the muncie back shifting. So I decided to add ground washers and cotter pins, and I never had this problem again, they seemed to always disappear on a busy highway in the summer and I hated for my car and I to be seen "broke down" for something this simple, have you heard of any problems with retaining shift rods this way? I'll be on Super661 when I start disassembling...
