sure a 3l yeah there's a great comparison.
let's see.
who here has broken axles with there atx, and wasn't turning corners.
I'm sorry but if you don't have a stall converter, then you don't have the drivetrain "shock" of a hard launch that a manual tran has.
The factory controlled ATX also will not allow you to shift as fast as any person with an MTX.
Note the word FACTORY CONTROLLED.
