Mitsubishi: Clutch slipping on 2000 Eclipse

Clutch slipping on 2000 Eclipse
I think my clutch is begriming to slip a bit. I notice when in 5th
gear and the engine is bogged a bit and I don't downshift that the
revs go up with no change in car speed.
Is there any sort of adjustment on this clutch? Any idea on
replacement costs from a dealer? Third party?
Thanks,
Gary

If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, waddles like a duck, it's
probably a duck. It will get worse and will eventually crack the flywheel
preventing resurfacing.
The clutch is expensive if you go to the dealer. Any reputable mechanic can
do it much cheaper. With a lift it takes less than 4 hours. AllData (what
most shops go by) says for the GT 7.0 Hrs and 5.5 for the GS. Figure that
plus $140 for the new disk. That's about 600 everything at max rate for the
GT. I've done many a clutch job on GSXs (AWD/Turbo and harder to do) on
lifts and 4 hrs is about average with a lot of BSing and goofing off.

Can anybody recommend a non-dealer mechanic in the Cincinnati Area
that might handle this?
