Blew my trans need help figuring out why

So I have a fully built motor turbo the works all the goodies. it was running great then my syncros start going first 5th started to pop out of gear then i had no fith, then third poped out then fourth alll over the course of a couple weeks but u know. So my question is How long do u guys think our trannys are good for or when do they start seeing problems mine has 100k miles exaclty and im going to go grab either a junk yard trans or rebuild this one to be bullet proff. Hahn Racecraft said it was my clutch that did it i have a spec stage two have hated it ever since i put it in last year.

Honestlt people have had clutchmaster grenade inside our bellhousings. so i would say they are no better than spec. The tranny will pop out of gear when the dog teeth round over. I highly doubt the clutch has anything to do with it. Our trannys are good to over 200k and still look like they are fairly new when disassembled. I should know i have rebuilt my fair share of them. Unless you owned the car from new, there is no way to tell what kind of abuse the trans saw. Also if you are one to try and do burnouts then that is another added damage.

Hahn just wants to sell you an 800 clutch Call andy at south bend clutch for a clutch instead.
