Manual vs Automatic with Nitrous - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

What percentage of guys are running manuals vs. automatics at the drag track that have street/strip N02 vehicles? Is there a significant cost difference between the two other than the transmission? 97% of my driving will be on the street. Below is my config, please make your recommendations or spec out some parts. I personally enjoy using the clutch but have never used nitrous. The reason I am asking, it seems the manual transmission would require a herky/jerky NO2 squirt between shifts. How is this controlled? Thanks!

??? T-56 magnum vs TH400 ???

mods to hook, including weight moved to the back
some dieting
