I was going to go auto if I did this swap. Auto and turbo it. You could run more consistant times in bracket racing with the auto hooked to a big motor like that. Auto is generally more consistant no matter what the motor size, it's just not as fast in low hp motors. It can be faster in the higher hp cars with faster quarter and 1/8 mile times.

if you plan on turbo v6, 3vzfe is a much better option than the 1mzfe. youre right, auto is usually faster unless you are a professional driver. there was an article in a magazine i read a while back that compared times of auto vs manual using both the magazine editors (who are probably good drivers to begin with) and professional drivers. only the pro drivers managed a faster lap time with the manual.
