I think my clutch is going out on my 01 WS6. It has been hard to put in gear lately and has just started making a “growling noise” when I use the clutch. Is this a sign of a worn clutch/Throw out bearing?

Had similar and it was throw out bearing.
My stock clutch was about done too.
If you have to do the throw out bearing might as well do a clutch and hydraulic's while in there.

Hydraulics, as in the master cylinder? Since I am going to do a clutch job, I might as well upgrade from OEM. Any recommended brands?

My white RS got the Hawk's Motorsports version with fast bleeder and they work very well. Tick is also very good. My 99 TA has RPM Transmission's version. Both seem better than the stock set up my 99TA had new.

Bruce at Hawk's Motorsports won't lead you wrong.
Likewise Jeremy at RPM Transmission is outstanding.

I favor the McCloud RXT Twin Disc Clutch.
The RST should be OK if you don't beat it hard to throw lots of hp at it

Throw out bearing for the growling sound, but while your in there replace your clutch I love my LS7 clutch and flywheel and Ticks Clutch Master, Hurst Billet Plus Shifter and agreed Hawks Motorsports are great 99BlackBirdT/A
