Starlin is an unknown quantity at this point
I run an FMX auto with a 3000 stall converter, braided lines, B&M Pro Shift Kit, B&M Bands and B&M Flex Plate in my Fairlane and run 1/2 second faster ETs in the 1/4 mile than I did with a Top Loader four speed and Hi-Perf clutch set up. Granted it is just barely streetable now.

Most serious straight liners I know run autos. They just shift faster and launch better than a manual.
