This has all of the parts you need.
Tick/Monster complete clutch swap package 98-02-camaro-firebird/
You'll need a transmission jack.
Harbor Freight 450-lb capacity transmission jack
You'll also need a bearing removal tool for the pilot bearing.
Harbor Freight blind hole bearing puller
and you can search the manual transmission section for some how to threads.

People get away with not doing the Clutch Master but the ones that these cars have are junk. Tick's unit is based of a Tilton unit and pushes more fluid, essential for any car running a aftermarket clutch. The slave should ALWAYS be changed out when doing the job as its internal.

Just get the flywheel thats matched to the clutch. Use a bearing puller. You cannot push on the back of the crank to get the bearing out.

Also a good time to change out the transmission fluid too. So plan on doing that.

I helped a friend put a clutch in his 02 SS and it was a pain in the tail.

+1 on the good time to change the trans fluid
