$$$ very tight-new rering/bearing motor heads/cam going into 96 WS6, clutch ???'s

My 96 WS6's motor was tired. Got a suppsidly crate motor from a guy, but it's only 2bolt and best we can figure is it's a low mile pull. Looks to be a new stock clutch on there as well.
Car will have
LE ported heads flowing about 265 on intake, Comp 233/239 XE cam. Jet hot LT's etc...

The motor was supposed to be ready to go, but once it got here builder said it needed new rings and bearings due to extended sitting and some rust on rings, he rehoned it as well. That was alot more $$ I wasn't expecting to spend. In addition the stock sized rings I ordered in Nov ended up being 0.20 over so now I'm out $127 for those and gotta pay another $100 or so to get the right parts. Sigh!!!!

I know the stock cluth is kinda junk, but I really can't afford $400 or so for a spec stage III. If I can get around a year or two out of this clutch I will do that. But if you think my motor will smoke this clutch in less that a summer, I'll just bite the bullet and order a spec III and wear earplugs for the next 3 mos while my wife nags me to death
