Manual Transmission - LS7 with 400rwhp + 150 shot, think it will hold for long?

Looking into a new clutch and really like the feedback on the LS7. Some bad, but mostly good comments.
-I am currently making about 400rwhp and don't plan anymore N/A power for awhile.
-I will be using a progressive controller to ramp up the shot from say 75 to 150 over a 2-3 second span.
-It would only be raced 2-3 times a month.
-The car will be on DR's and would only be launched at about 2-3k rpms...easily, not dumped.

What would you say would be my approximate clutch life span?

Money is an opject and that is why this clutch is one of my favorites, along with the stock feeling pedal that others have commented on.

Thanks for your input, James.

when i had mine in my H/C 100 shot formula, i starting ripping on it with like 17 miles....started spraying on it before 100....and put about 1-2k miles on it and had no problems...took it to the track with et streets, and it was fine...i imagine hot lapping wouldnt be good , but other wise i had no issues...car hard a 12 bolt to.
car did 443/37x n/a and 513/485 100 kick

I have 6k on mine with several 4700 rpm dumps. It is a bitch to get into gear at the track but it holds up. Of course, when you spray you will be up about 100 hp on me though.

Anyone with experience with a simliar setup, do you think the clutch will hold for a couple years or a couple months??
