I can't help with the sticking issue, to many variables to really diagnose on line.

I've had my clutch replaced twice and both ran about $1,500 + for parts and labor. First time just because I was at 100k, and second time the slave cylinder gave up and leaked on my pressure plate destroying it.

Make sure you install a remote bleeder. I gravity bleed the clutch at every oil change and have had no issues. 155k on the vette today
Good luck
