Camaro site debates mopar vs chevy

Narrow minded people? Never heard any of this ****. If I had a penny for every hot GM product that went down the strip with a Muncie 4-speed I would be a rich man. Grew up in the 60's. The Muncie is one of the slickest transmissions to shift there is. Mopar transmissions took a **** to. Thats why they sold parts to fix them. If you will remember Bill "Grumpy" Jenkins held the national record in A/S with a 327 Nova and whipped the **** out of the street hemi. Don't get me wrong. I love mopars but don't be so narrow minded!!!!

GM wouldn't even use the Muncie 3-speed until '70. They bought Top loader 3-speeds from Dearborn until they cost too much. Those HD 3-speeds were miles better than the Muncie. I'm not suprised you "never heard any of this ****". I grew up street racing for beer money in the '70s. I put in my time and money on those Muncie 4-speeds, and IMO they are weak. That is not narrow minded, it is the truth. I moved on... just like I am about to do with this "conversation".
Also...I seem to remember Jenkins got his *** handed to him at the Nationals in that very A/S car by Stahls street Hemi.
