I don't know anything about them, Wayne.  Can you point me to a link or a manufacturer who makes them available?

Winters Performance sells Clutch automatic components and kits through their "Maverick" brand. Here is a link to their catalog. (Yes I have looked into this for my 65 Mustang as part of the Gasser motif. :) )

A friend had an old streetrace GTO from New York built in the 70s
that had a "turboclutch" trans. A TH 400 with cut of bellhousing
and replaced with a scatershield and a flywheel and clutch
was a pretty hot L88 engine in it  the trans worked fine the
short time he drove it
The rumor says they have to clean the racetracks a lot less
since those type of trans disapeared :-\
