Its the name of the manual transmissions that were available in Ws from 88-90 and 91-93. They are also called Muncies, since they were made in Muncie, IN. Also called the HM-282 or HM-284

That depends.

 

The 282 uses a standard pull type clutch and parts/repair are cheaper. It doesn't handle as much power/torque as the 284, but the difference isn't really that significant.

 

The 284 uses a pull type clutch (ass-backwards) and the parts/repair are insanely expensive because this particular trans isn't that common. Should it ever require a rebuild ... you have to ship to detroit.

 

I have a 282 mated to the L67 with a beefy clutch ... I haven't had a problem for the first 20,000 miles.

Werd. The 282 will handle it. Once it goes, see if you can get it rebuilt with beefier parts though.
