Is 2nd gear pop-out a characteristic of this tranny? What is another manual option without a lot of install fuss?

You probably killed the second gear engagement teeth. The only way to tell is to take it apart.

I have had two trannys do this and in both cases it was a shifter linkage adjustment problem. I would look there first.

Thank for the info. I have adjusted the clutch both ways to find the happy medium. I am convinced to look twd a muncie. Any1 have any links for a purchase?

Thanks

I'm running a Super T-10 in my 66 coupe and have never had any problems (whatsoever) with it. It is a well built transmission (if you were to ask me)...

Very common problem in the day with T10s. Don't know about Super T10s. Usual repair in the day was to replace it with a Muncie.

If you do replace it with a Muncie, you'll need a new clutch disc, a new driveshaft yoke, and maybe a new speedometer cable. You would probably replace the clutch disc anyway. But the yoke is expensive. Your existing shifter will fit both transmissions. Not sure, but I believe 2 of the 3 rods will also fit. You may need to buy the reverse rod.

Reason I mention this is that in the day people often replaced the BW T10 with a Muncie. The Muncie was considered a stronger transmission. But there were plenty of cheap parts around then. Not so now. If you decide to go to a Muncie, make sure you price everything.

If you're going to swap you may want to think of going to a 5 speed the Keisler package goes for about $3600 complete with trans, disc, driveshaft, and shifter.

I switched from a muncie to a super T10. Linkages are not exact, I had to remove the backup switch. Can’t be happier with the change. It sounds like your 2nd/4th shifter linkage needs to be adjusted.
