Just a little food for thought if you're replacing your clutch.
First, I love your new sig,


I put three clutches in my Olds Starfire in 30K miles. Had one special built from a Corvette assy and pressure plate. went over 200M using the same driver and often pulling a trailer.

Beefy clutches exist. As far as I know, the Crossfire has one. I would assume at least 100K.

Unless you are pulling a trailer.
