#1 is close to what I am doing with the exception that I am running Yota cases. The yota auto is NOT the same set-up as the 5spd in regards to tcases.

If you want to somewhere between 1 & 2 you might consider:

VW Diesel (any)/Kick auto/dual yotas. Bad thing there is over a thousand dollars in adapters alone. Good thing is that you'd have decent torque, excellent gearing abilities, and strength in parts.
