The clutch line has a thermal fiberglass wrap on it, so unless that was removed and the line was actually touching the cat, how is it going to boil under normal street driving? And about your fluid being black, that's because the seal on your Csc was going bad and allowing dirt and debri into the system. If you feel the Dot 5 is a fix, then have at it... But I guarantee you that your stock Csc will fail again.
