I'm sorry I missed it too. $1400 sounds excessive for that job.
Did you also buy a new flywheel? Did they resurface yours?

If you are rev'n above 3k consistently while shifting you are being hard on the clutch.

That's just not so. RPM has little to do with whether a clutch lasts or not. I could beat up on a clutch and make it die and never go over 2500. Downshifting, and upshifting aggressively, or constant feathering, will have far more immediate effects than smooth shifting at higher rpms. That's my $.02
