Default is there a proper way to set up clutch or hydrolic system on ls1 clutch?

car is a 01 ws6 w/4.11's, mcleod adj master and new 01 slave. i went through a ram 980,910,centerforce,z06 and now a spec st3. i go through a clutch every 1,500 to 2,500mi and only 20-30 track passes on each clutch. i have 434hp & 390tq(stang dyno) a 150 shot,and i only spray maybe two bottles a year. is there a way to set them up so they last longer? how do you know when it's right? does something special need to be done to the hydrolic system? trans shops do all labor,any help would be great.
thanks, mike c.

Are all these clutches failing in the same manner & conditions?
Like @ the track while spraying?
Might be time for a twin disc set up?

I always thought that the racing clutches just can't be used on the street and thats why they go out so fast, but i see you went through a z06 clutch also, probly just had too much power for it so you are kinda stuck.
