You guys are smelling the clutch because of the vented clutch housing. Your clutch is fine, and all clutches burn. You just smell it a little more cause of the vent. It will get better as it gets temperd or all the manufacturing chemicals. But one thing you gotta watch on these cars, It will destroy your clutch, 6th gear. If your not doing at least 75 mph, dont even go there. With this kind of hp, you will slip the clutch if you get in it at low rpm in 6th. Plus this loads you engine with extra fuel at low rpm and is hard on you motor. Dont drive with rpm lower than 1800-2000 rpm. if you notice your rpm dropping below this, grab a grear! The LS3 likes to growl a little anyhow. Just some advice from an old road ripper.
