Just finished eating dinner and wanted to chime in on this recipe. I would definitely say that the amount of pasta is off - use a pound. otherwise, this was really good and full of clams. I didn't find it too liquidy even if you only used 8 oz pasta (the mixture cooks down a bit) and didn't feel it needed anything else.
As written, this recipe produces a dish that is either an incredibly wet "linguine with clams" or a marginally dry "linguine clam soup/stew" -- the amount of liquid is disproportional to the volume of pasta, and it's really watery. I increased the amount of pasta to 1 pound (which is a standard recipe size anyway), and had to increase the amount of butter to 4 tbsp in order to give the sauce some body. Grated pecorino cheese also provided some needed saltiness.
