It all depends on what you're planning for the future. It's better to go higher torque capacity than lower. And "lightly modded" is a relative term, give more details.

its got a k&n cai and a cat back exhaust. the only near future mods would be headers, y-pipe, and possibly a short shifter. also, this is my daily driver. will i lose longevity with a clutch with more torque capacity?

I have the same question but for a 95 (doesnt change things though)... I like the price of the SPEC Stage 1 and the RAM HDX clutches, but Ive heard some (err... too many) bad comments regarding RAM's customer service lately.

I used a spec stage 1 on my car for 30,000 miles before the LT4 Hotcam. And 12,000 miles after the cam and had no problems. I had full bolt-ons before the cam and made 274 RWHP & 302 RWTQ.
