Here is why, if you don't do it and it goes out in a few K miles, then you have to do the whole nine yards all over again and you'd kick yourself in the rear.
This is also a good opportunity to think "upgrade" to a performance or street/race clutch.
Yes I know, it will add somewhere from $500 all the way to $1300 to your tab, but it is worth every dime.
Check out those links I found for you.

totally agree. BTW, the stage 1 clutch from Spec is only around $550 and is rated to 340lb-ft of torque. and an Aasco LWF is only another $800 on top of that......what a slippery slope indeed.

EDIT: the $550 from Spec is for the disk, pressure plate, throwout bearing and alignment tool. available sprung or unsprung.
