OP posted in the street section and most Pontiac street engines rarely hit 6500 and do not see a whole lot of miles.
IMO, if you are using and SFI approved flywheel and SFI clutch with the appropriate hardware properly installed, there is virtually no risk of a clutch explosion. Certainly no more than a fuel leak and fire and I know everyone isn't running around will a full fire suppression system in their car. It's about risk management. If you are tracking the car or taking it to the strip with 7,000 RPM potential, the equation changes.
That said, my C6 Z06 can do all of that and it's rare to see a Z06 owner with a scatter shield of any kind.
