I believe that a M22 Muncie does have a 2.20 low gear, not even close to what you need for a decent launch on slicks. And if you are using a non adjustable "Street/strip" style of clutch, even more of an issue. Is this a bracket car, or street strip application? If its a drag car, I wouls sell the M22 before you break it, and buy a Jerico,or G Force, with a low gear in the 3.0 or 3.1 range. And an adjustable low pressure clutch setup. If its a "street" car, (kinda doubtful with that rearend gearing.), you will always be living with compromises.
