I've got a brass button in mine, and will be used with the 4L. Its also twin plate (double the contact surface, double the grip, four times the price). I took it to a clutch plate to find out which way the plates go together (I pulled it apart to look at it and wanted to make sure I put it back together properly). The guy at the clutch place said he's never seen one, and neither had his dad who owned the company before he did.
My slave cylinder for the clutch is also inside the belhousing and is hydraulicaly operated (also, F%ing expensive).
It wasn't easy to reverse park it with the turbo 6, its gonna be even harder with the low down torque of the V8. will be great on the track though.
And compression lockups are bloody great! come up to a corner slow it down with the brakes, then put it in seccond and let it out .. "chirp" and then go round the corner. I don't know anyone that would down gear while in a corner, so compression lockups are not dangerous - for sliding out that is.
With a brass button clutch you MUST have the driveline to handle it as it puts a lot more strain on other parts like the other guys said - gearbox, diff.
