Matt's response gives me an thought. Has anyone ever tried a torque
converter by itself as a PSRU? Seems like it might solve a number of
problems, be relatively light, and not subject to wear. Just a thought -
I'm sure there would be lots of new problems.

And flywheels? That is one advantage of automatic transmissions, the TC
damps the torsional vibrations from the engine and prevents them from
reaching the transmission and drivetrain. Most standard shift vehicles
have spring hub clutch disks to help cushion the drive train.
