Hello members
I have a '76 2.0 with an upgraded big bore powerplant from FAT. I do some autocross with it and take it out to shows. Is there an option for a stronger/longer lasting clutch other than original? if so, are there any downfalls other than pedal pressure, premature thrust bearing failure, tranny or other issues it can cause. Thanks for the guidence.

I replaced it about 1 1/2 years ago. Not a daily driver because we only have 7 months out of the year to drive it here in Chicago

1.5 years is not much that for sure, seems rather premature , what kind of power does a FAT motor produce.
