It is a Borg Warner T-10. Most people generally with use the M-20, M-21, M-22 to refer to Muncies trans even though GM use the M-21 RPO code to denote later Borg Warner T-10s.

. . . GM use the M-21 RPO code to denote later Borg Warner T-10s.
. . . and M20 and M18. These codes refer to different gear ratio sets.

:iagree:

Its both - Borg Warner desginates the transmission as the T-10 or Super T-10 however GM's rpo (regular production option) code is M21.

GM wouldnt refer to the transmission in the manufacturers code but apply their own rpo code...Note - the muncie codes were the same because they were a GM product - at least so Ive been told.

Super T-10. Great transmission (much better than a Muncie or Saginaw, IMHO), and can take a bunch of abuse. Only transmission that's better is the Top-Loader Ford. Wish I had it in mine instead of the M20...
