Meh, thousands of people have run that set-up before without problems.

Past that, let's be honest with ourselves: it's a performance car from 1993 that was likely run hard and had a heavy clutch before I bought it, was run realitively hard with a heavy clutch to the point of 11s when I had it and it had 143K on it, and I know you run it hard. Plus your commute is pretty husky and is only going to put more strain on the parts, especially if you're grinding into gears or having trans issues or what have you. Parts are going to wear faster at this point. If you think it's the flywheel, pop the trans off. It'll take you a few hours, but it's realitively easy to do and then you'll have an answer to your problem.
