My next mod will be a new clutch, thinking of going LS7. My car just turned 60,000 miles and the clutch is starting to go. I was wondering what mileage did others change their clutchs out at??? Is my mileage low, average or above average for a clucth to last??

My car is at 53,000 and it feels like it's gonna go in the next 10k or so

109k miles, stock 98 hydraulics, and still grabs great for DDing but sucks *** for racing. It's stuck to the floor a few times and slipped more than a few times.

About 45,000 miles, but it's got 56,000 on it now. Learning how to drive a manual with the car didn't help clutch longevity. It's stuck a few times on hard 1-2 shifts, and it slips like a fat girl covered in grease going down a water slide if I punch the throttle at anywhere over 3500rpm. Hell, my clutch slips more than my tires.

Mine only lasted 25k miles . Probably my fault tho .

I don't remember mileage but it wasn't much. However it wasn't the clutch that gave out it was the hydraulics. I had plenty of disc left when I swapped it out.

Bought my car at 40,000, they said it still had the stock clutch. 83k now and it slips a
little every now and then after a few hard shifts, but still works for me. 4:10's going in the back in the next week or two, probably won't be long after that.

48k miles going strong, some slippage at the track and hardly any on the street.. but i'm going to need to replace it w/ the h/c pkg going in.

Mine is at 36k and I smoked the hell out of at the track in the summer heat...95 degrees. After letting it cool down for about 3 hrs and then driving it easy for a while, meaning weeks, it finally starting grabbing again. In fact, it was holding well enough to propel the car to 11.87@120 with a dry shot of N2O.

On the street it would break the tires loose and get sideways in 2nd effortlessly. On most ocassions a fast shift to 3rd would chirp the tires and in rare instances break loose a bit.....depending on the surface of the road as well as outside temps.

I have the tranny out for a rebuild...got stuck in 4th, and I am replacing the clutch while it is out, no better time to do so. I think it would have lived a great deal longer as a bolt on car, but not with the added power of the N2O or the cam and Nittos that will be coming soon. The time I smoked it definately shortened it's lifespan.

Thanks for reading my novel

67000 miles, and it is definately due for a change. Slipping at anything over 2500 rpm WOT. So, severe power loss. Sux but it lasted longer than I thought it ever would.

52,000, I broke something on the pressure plate.

FUN LS1

90,000 here and the new Mcleod is on the way. I can still drive it around OK, and even lay patches, but I can feel it slip above about 5400 and it slips on really hard acceleration. I thought 90K was pretty darn good for the abuse I've given it.

Seems like it really depends on if you use drag radials and track it. I have 46 k on mine, and it wont last much longer ill bet. But dding it would prob go to 100k.

It was slipping at the track last summer when I was on it hard all day at 20K miles. Now its at 27K and is perfect for DD. Gona switch it out at 50K when I do 4.10s if it lasts.

98,500 here. It won't last forever but, so far so good.
