Denis, I don't understand what caused the breakage - the clutch etc.. is still there, so was it the tailshaft that broke and twisted everything apart?

Makes me want to install my Indian loop b4 I go to the strip!

I'm guessing there was too much play in the tail of the trans. Either the output shaft was fatigued or the bushing was worn too much? Anyone else have thoughts on this kind of Muncie failureÖ

Do you guys use a scatter shield when you run your cars at the reunion? Very dangerous to run a solid lifter chevy without one! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scholar.gif[/img]

It appears that something caused the trans to lock solid then the momentum of the spinning wheels, rear end, drive shaft, and Dyno caused the output shaft to shear in half and shatter the bell and trans housing. It is difficult to say without a close look at all the parts.

Re: WANTED: 67 Camaro M21 Tranny
 

Just got back from the trans shop with the car, and a box of bits.

Appears to have been caused by the U-joint coming apart, a worn tail shaft, or both. Everything else came about as a consequence of the above. Pretty friggin' dramatic. None of the guts are worth reusing, gears look pretty worn already and not worth salvaging. Only piece that survived is the side cover and the shifter--finally, a good reason to mount the shifter on the crossmember.

Mr Maynard has most of what I need to replace the trans and bellhousing, need to follow up with him for the main case after he's had a chance to check his stash. Driveshaft will need to be trued and balanced, floor will need some mending, engine needs to come out to reweld on a broken bellhousing mounting boss (I found the broken piece).

Whew, what a day! Nothing another $5-6K won't fix.

Dennis was this the original trans?

Re: WANTED: 67 Camaro M21 Tranny
 

Busted trans had 'correct' dates and castings but no VIN. Not original to the car.
