a tilton, carbon/carbon clutch is 3500 dollars... granted it will feather as smooth as a stock honda clutch and have about the same pedal pressure as a geo storm... but the price leaves little green for a tranny... a ford AOD can be built to handle that power, and you can order it with gm housing.. i have a full manual, transbrake AOD for my stack injected BBC 32 ford... the gm/aod hybrid with ford motorsport gearsets will handle full power 3/4 shifts at your powerlevel... (just dont buy it from ck performance)

with regards to the powershifts, you could mount an egr solenoid to a vacuum canister to actuate the BOV's as soon as you touched the clutch.. that would relieve some charge pressure and momentarily reduce the power to a synchro friendly level...

but i have one question... with 800 foot pounds of tourque... who needs a transmission?.. all you really need is a PG, and gear it for 200 mph in second and you can still 120 mph burnouts by mashing the throttle..
