Right, that's somewhat common knowledge though. The clutch is designed to be an interchangeable item as it wears over time, much like tires and other frictional contact points. I'm still curious though if anyone has done any strenuous testing on the manual transmission to determine its lifetime.

Stock block/internals/cams?

Not to veer OT, but what is the upper range of power these motors can be reliably (I know that's relative) pushed to? I'm not talking the brink of the envelope where one bad batch of gas and the motor is toast, but rather where the engine can dish it out on a regular basis and you don't cringe everytime you go WOT.

Anyone? After some snooping around, the consensus on pump-gas in the range of 450-500 RWHP. That seems a little exaggerated to me, but is there any truth behind this?
