Guys having issues with the clutch sticking are tuned cars, like your, shifting over 7,200 rpm. The stock soft limiter is at 6,800 and the hard rev limiter is at 7,000. And the stock intake has HP fall over at 6,500. So no reason to shift a stock tuned car that high anyways.
I love the soft clutch for daily driving. If I ever get a replacement clutch it will be the stock Boss clutch. Nice pedal feel and hold a lot of power. OE is finally figuring out a clutch that hold up well is important. haha
How many times do I have to say it? My car isn't tuned. My red line is 7000. I was getting the stuck clutch problem with stock power and a stock tune just like everyone else did in this thread on S197.

Real post time:
MGW shifter or bust. Almost 20000 on mine with it and it'slike fantastic.
Put Amsoil MTG in the transmission. The Ford OEM stuff and the "fix" for the transmission crunch is garbage. The MTG doesn't like cold but you just have to be easy on it until it warms up, then it's butter.
Take the stupid "assist" spring out of the clutch assembly. As simple as removing the cruise control deactivation switch(have to or you'll break the plastic that holds it in[ask me how I know]), a clip, pulling the plunger off the pedal and removing the two "hats" and the spring itself. You'll no longer have the high RPM, clutch sticking problem(trust me, you'll get it sooner or later).
On the subject of fluids, one thing interesting I did discover is that Track Pack Mustangs come from the factory with 5-50 full synthetic oil, and a slightly different engine calibration to account for this as a result. Noticed my Oil fill cap stated the requirement, so I checked my owners manual and our said the same thing. Not a big deal, but interesting nonetheless.

Do some searching around here. Great information and actual data on a lot of the fluids used in cars.
