    M21 Muncie speedo gear

    Due to the total lack of normal intelligence, I managed to drop the speedo gear in the tail piece of the transmission. Any suggestions of retrieving this gear without removing trans from car. Oh yes , a m21 in a 57. any advise would be apprecianted.

          Thanks James. Do you think it will damage any bearings or gears

              The speedometer gear is in the extension housing, not the main case. Consequently, the only gears it could be "churned up" and "interact" with are the reverse gears. I don't think it would really damage these if that happened.

                  Thanks for your quick responses. However, I hope my mistake does not cause me any more grief.

                      Seems like a lot of them come out of their normal hole with almost no teeth anyway. You are just completing the job.
