Now Shipping: Lightened Muncie Mainshafts

September 21, 2009, AUTO GEAR COMPANY, INC. of Syracuse, New York
For years racers have reduced the weight of their gearboxes by gun-drilling finished mainshafts -- a slow, expensive and, for transmissions with small diameter pilots that must be relieved at the output end, modest savings. 'Muncie' designs, with their large diameter pilots and hefty body can be relieved from the pilot end for much greater gains -- we trim almost two pounds -- and, as our mainshafts are gun-drilled in manufacturing, we can offer lightened mainshafts for only a few dollars more than our regular production.

Furthermore, gun-drilling under the 2nd and 3rd gear journals allows heat to exit through the bore, so those critical surfaces can run cooler.

And finally, because all our mainshafts are now cut by Masiero Asia, we can offer the same Italian quality at a Chinese price -- lower than our old price, even for the lightened versions:

27 spline regular WT297-2A $US124.00
27 Tooth Spline Shaft 18-171-001 $US132.00
32 spline regular WT297-2G $US130.00
32 tooth Spline Shaft 18-171-002 $US138.00
