There are several published cladistic studies on fossil gastropods.  As might be expcted, it depends on the characters as to how useful they are.  Vermeij, Dan Miller, and Peter Wagner come to mind as some authors to check.  Formal cladistic analyses on the Bivalvia are much fewer; the Evolutionary Biology of the Bivalvia volume just published by the Geological Society of London has one based almost entirely on shell data, with quite a few characters.
