Getting a clutch, what to replace?
Im buying the z06 clutch kit, i just want something better than stock, i have a stock power, and not planning on upgrade. I know i have to replace the slave cylinder, what about bolts?? And this Slave cylinder upgrade--is this the master slave cylinder?? Any help would be great.

The slave cylinder is in the tranny, it moves the pressure plate in and out. There also is a master cyclinder that is connected to your clutch pedal. I would replace it with either a factory one, 2001-2002, these are the updated years. I went with a tick adjustable master, its pricey but in most of the forums opinion, makes shifting alot better and elimnates the high rpm shifting problems. I also went with New gm bolts for the flywheel and pressure plate, they were like $20 for all of them.
did you get a new flywheel also?

I will get the flywheel, i guess it couldnt hurt while im there. I would really hate to leave the car in the shop over a darn bolt. I really dont have that much money to spend to i will stick to the factory parts. So i will get the upgraded master slave cylinder, just want to make sure i would waste $30 if not needed. Would you suggest to do the drill mod? i do drive my car hard, but not often at all, I dont drag it either.

Its actually 2 separate things, a slave, in the tranny, then the master, under your clutch pedal.
I would go with a new stock slave, thats what I have. You can go with a new 2001-2002 master and I believe it comes with the line attached and already has the drill mod done.
Someone please chime in to verify this.
Not sure how much you have to spend and if you plan on modding it but you can save alot doing it yourself, if you have some mechanical ability.

Monster Premium package is a win win win. I bought the three and was upgraded to the 4. it came with everything that I needed to be more than pleased. No shimming, by far the best damn set of direction on how to put a clutch set up in I have ever seen. Even tho it is not rocket science. I know you are wanting to just upgrade a little bit, buy you a Monster clutch. I had a LS6 clutch before that it was not really that good. Best of luck. If you would like to see my monster bing put in see the below link.
