oh and +1 for NixLimited.. pulleys will not net gains.. It will only "free-up" rotational mass.

Well, looks like the autos are faster than the 6MTs. Top three 1/4 mile cars stock are autos.

It's the same with the Challenger. I have a 6MT in my Challenger with a blower and my buddy has the same in his auto. His auto is almost exactly .5 seconds faster than me in the 1/4 with mine having 2 more MPH. I run 11.50s at 125 and he runs 11.10s at 124. It's the same kind of thing across our forum. And yes, I can shift.

Newer autos are just much better than "back in the day". Now, the strength is an issue when going FI.
