I thought people always talked bad about those little springs in the OEM pressure plates
And SNL has been beating the absolute **** out of them and they're taking it all day. Maybe Steve can post some videos... I've seen them before.
Edit: here's some good info

I had to delete my first post on what clutch we are using my buddy posted that we are using the lt1-sc but we are not, we are using there the level 2 billet twin disc from monster on the car it is a awesome piece and you can't go wrong with choosing a monster clutch very happy.

Thanks for all the posts guys.
Just for fun here is a couple of oldies but goodies, of the LT1-XX's in action.
This is Steve's old GTO running against Buck's N/A Fbody, both running the LT1-S so you can see the performance that the stock material gives.
Here is Ray's Fbody the first time he broke the GM 6 Speed record running the LT1-R; for those who have questions about the GM springs holding up under extreme performance.

I got some good passes out of my level 2 too until I blew the disc up. Do you have any data or pics/measurements after somehow hard use?
How fast is that camaro???
As far as measurements, etc. Ray sent his cultch in for review after a season of running 8's (he lost the engine which is why he tore it down). The clutch had roughly 85% life left and looked fantastic. Minimal scoring/wear for the unbelievable abuse that he put it through. Keep in mind this car goes 1.2xx 60's.
for those of you worried about the gm springs holding up. well dont worry bc these lt1 series clutches are tough.
here is a video of a 1.25 60' on the back tires and then money shifting from second back to first on accident and cutch took it like a champ and thats not the only time ive done that. (i guess the big wheelies get me to excited lol)
here is the car just a few days later at lsfest same clutch no issues.
like monster said i sent it back only bc i had the car apart anyway and figured they would like to see how its holding up it was working exactly as it should and holding 1100+rwhp
