Default Stock clutch replacement

Hello, my LS1 vehicle is basically stock and i plan on keeping that way.

Do you guys know what a good, cheep clutch replacement would be? i know that sometimes autozone/oreily parts are just as good as GM parts but much cheaper.
also what about pressure plate and slave cylinder?

PS i tried and was unable to search for this answer, Thanks!

LS7 or LS6 clutch would be the cheapest for a complete kit. A stage 1 from Diamond or Monster would be even cheaper if you used your stock flywheel and had it resurfaced. You will definitely want to replace the slave.

From what I understand, all the stock replacements are the LS6 clutch. The guy I bought my car from had put an LUK in it and it's been in there 5 years going strong with 380rwhp.
Still holds good... knock on wood.
