If you're in there already it can't hurt. With that said, I've owned four 996s and one 986 and had zero issues. It can happen, but it's a rare event that has been overblown by forums and magazines. Let's face it, many people are looking for reasons to dislike the 996.
I have just owned one 996 and had the IMS failure in the first year......Ended up getting a new engine. Ill be putting in a Retrofit IMS when I do my clutch.

Yea sounds like good peace of mind to do the LN IMS upgrade & RMS while you're in there doing the clutch.
I looked at a 996 with ~50k on the 'dealer installed motor' and this sounds good but I would probably still do the LN IMS & RMS as the motor is of OEM spec.
