What's the condition of the clutch. Looks awful but I don't know much about them.

Nice refresh...i'm planning similar at 90k, if clutch lasts another 12k.

Might want to check plug wires while engine is out and do 60k service.

Yeah, the old clutch looks to have seen better days. It doesn't look that great. That said I didn't notice anything abnormal when driving the car with that clutch.

Right, those are new plug wires/plugs/distributor caps/rotors you are looking at --- will go replace the distributor belt as well....

Appbiz's Ultimate sound pad is nice.

The OE pad seems to be one ply foam* The Appbiz ultimate seems to be 3 ply - thin aluminum skin towards the firewall, dense fibrous layer, and then foam rubber-ish layer similar to the matte black factory stuff that faces the engine.
