Okay, I have searched and studied for years. Maybe it's the stress of knowing that today I bent all my intake valves on the a3 and I am scrambling to toss together a k24 so I can minimize how long I have to rent a car for($220/wk).

I am ditching my skunk2 stage II cams(may have had nothing to do with the valves, I had terrible oil pressure and my TCT may have failed). I will just use my cai, prc intake manifold, KRRH, and 06 type-s midpipe, tuned on k-pro. The power will be right around my 180hp I was running for the last year, but tq will probably exceed the 140ish I had. Anyone think that the stock clutch will hold to 160lbs? Originally I was planning on swapping in a year and then adding a JRSC which would have needed a better clutch, but since I am under a time crunch I have to pay a shop to swap and I will not be modifying this motor maybe ever due to spending more money than doing the swap myself.

So, long story short, will a stock clutch with 60K miles handle a bolt-on k24a1?
