Default LS7 Clutch kit Question Please help!

I was wondering if anyone knows What TO bearing I need for the LS7 clutch with with LS2 Flywheel. Also, Will My stock Slave Cylinder work with the TO bearing I need for this kit? Please any information I would be great.
I just replaced my slave and dont want to spend another $150+ for another slave if I dont have too.

You'll use the same slave cylinder and TOB that your car was equipped with from the factory. If you've got alot of miles on yours or if you've got a pre-'01 F-body and haven't already, you might go ahead and swap the slave cylinder while you're there.

The slave you recently replaced should work just fine with the LS7 clutch. I replaced all of my hydraulics when I put my LS7 clutch in this spring. The bearing is part of the slave and will work fine for you.

Well I just recently GOt a POS Clutch kit (SPEC)and hate it and am going with the LS7 Kit. Can I use that TO bearing with the new LS7 clutch or just opt out and get a stock TO bearing from the dealer? It has less than 200 miles. I have a 2000 T/A. The Slave and master is new, Less than a month new.

When I did my LS7 swap, I got a new slave, and the kit. Didn't get the master, but we did do the drill mod. I would have bought a new master if I had the money, but I was on a very tight budget you know.

As stated above your stock OEM stuff will work perfectly fine. I do suggest goin ahead with at least a new slave which has a TO bearing on it. Then just check the pilot bearing & if it's good to go put it all back together exactly like to disassembled it. Just like installing a stock clutch.

And for the record I'm on stock 99' master still & have had ZERO pedal issues at any RPM level. My stock hydrolics have about 103k on them also.
