You have not mentioned anything about the clutch smoking and stinking. If the clutch is slipping much at all it will burn and stink and even smoke, and it doesn't take much to get it "stinking" hot. So if you are not smelling it, I don't think the clutch is slipping. Has to be another reason why your car will only go 62 mph. Maybe fuel filters are bad, maybe needs valve adjust bad, maybe the engine is toast.
