i have a 97 pontaic firebird with 140000 mile. I replaced the clutch less than a year ago. Now it seems it is out again. It revs up when i press the gas but doesnt go like it should and when I am trying to go up a hill it acts like it wont make it. Can I just replace the plates of something?

If the clutch is bad I would replace the disc, pressure plate, T/O bearing and have the flywheel resurfaced (if it can be).
Also check the output shaft seal to make sure it is not leaking oil as well as the rear main engine seal.
