Really nasty clutch judder when hot

Hi guys - been having a ball in the '79 but it has developed really nasty clutch judder once it is hot. Don't think it is a temperature thing, but instead I am thinking leaking oil maybe? I do have a burning oil smell and some leaks so that seems likely. Any RX7 specific things for me, as a noob, to consider?

Thanks!

Check your tranny mount. A separated one is more likely to shudder, regardless of temps.
