Default Muncie M20 Users: Love or Hate

Looking for advice from current/former M20 drivers. My car is street, monthly drags for fun. When I take off in first gear, it seems like more work than it ought to be. The low first gear (2.52) requires some feathering when letting out the clutch. I have 3.55s out back with just under 25 inch tires. Do you see anything wrong with my set up? I have a chance to switch to a M21 for a interim period as eventually I would like a overdrive tranny. Would that in your opinion make much of a difference? From what I have read, the big rpm fallout between 3rd and 4th would be better with the M21.
