>>When WAS  the last time anyone actually 
had a clutch blow? 
 
I owned a road race Mustang that suffered a catastrophic flywheel / clutch  
failure at high RPMs. Thanks to a shield, none of the frags made it into the  
cockpit. The hood looked as if it were blasted by a shotgun from underneath and 
 the only remnants of the clutch & flywheel was the sheet metal part of the  
pressure plate that was spinning around the trans input shaft for quite a 
while.
