No matter what else you do, you will need to shield or re-route the clutch line away from the headers.

I actually left it in place on 318, but put a some spiral wound heat shielding around the line and have had no problems in Texas heat. Before that, about 20 minutes into a ride, the clutch went to mush and fluid was black when bled out of the slave. Nasty.
