Sorry to revive an old thread.

In that 130K miles, how many times was the clutch replaced?

It's not that old of a thread, lol. I bought my '98 WS6 clone in April for $6500 with 128K on it. It ran 13.74 bone stock. I added a lid, shorty headers (don't hate, they were brand new for $90) SLP Loudmouth, and 4.10 gears and it has run a best of 13.000@110.63. It's now pushing 140K. This winter I plan on slapping a cam in it, LS6 intake/ported TB and a set of longtubes and ORY to drop it deep in the 12's. Oh yeah, can't forget the S60 I'm going to be needing. With over 10k of hard driving miles on it and numerous trips to the dragstrip, my clutch is as strong today as it was the day I bought the car. I don't know what it has in it, but when it comes time to replace it, I'm hoping to stick with the same thing. It's a great clutch.
