Ok there is a disscusion gion on over on the Corvetteforum about a 15k life span for the Spec III clutch. This guy was a hard core drag racer and went almost every weekend.
So how much could the daily drive expect to get out of the Spec III?? I am sure some you guys have this clutch in for more than 15k and can give some input on it.

Mine lasted 15k over the course of 2 summers of daily driving and 2-3 track outings. About 1/3 of my stock clutch life span.
Don't buy a spec for the life span, don't buy a spec if you dislike chatter.
In fact, just don't buy a spec.

Mine has 25,000 miles (in about 18 months time) on it and is still holding strong. It's made probably 50-60 1/4 mile passes with 6,000rpm launches on the gas out of the hole. It also gets the crap driven out of it on the street.
I think in order to really get the most of the clutch you REALLY need 4.10+ gears. The car was a beast to drive when I still had the stock 3.42 gears in it.
