Anybody still have a clutch turbo transmission laying around? I'd like to try one in a gasser project. Or even the parts to build one

I still have one I am saving for a project, but there used to be couple of years ago a couple of places still marketing the stuff. I believe Dynamic Transmissions would sell the components for them. Can't remember name of other vendor . If I do I will post it. They do have their limitations due to input shaft strength and violence of the gear change from lack of fluid coupling of the converter. I used to love running mine in my old injected BB 55' chevy.

Thanks Gordon, I already talked to Dynamic, and some other place that used to sell the kits and they both said they are out of the clutch auto business

All is not lost. Used to be a guy named Souza here in N Calif. He bought all the parts and rights to the B&M clutch turbo trans line. He was buddy of one my ex bosses. I will try to get a hold of the family after the holidays settle down and see what became of the stuff. No promises but I will see how far I can get. Have a hopeful New Year.
