Question slave cyl

My 2002 zo6 slave cylinder is leaking and needs to be replaced. I was thinking about upgrading to a LS7 or LS9 clutch, I was wondering if anyone has done one of these and what do they think of it, which one to go with and what parts are needed. Also While I am in there I want to attend to the torque tube couplers, some people use billet peaces but others say that end up damaging things down stream, I have a D&D built T56 and I dont want to trash it. has anyone used them or are there other options. I have mild build with 560hp and the wheels. any help would be really appreciated.

Dave

With 560 to the tire on a "mild" build I would steer clear of the LS7 clutch. It's good for a stock clutch but not if you're over 450RWHP. The LS9 is a factory twin disk that will hold that power level without any issues but I haven't seen what they're going for. You might want to look into other twin disc setups if you want to maintain a light pedal effort and zero chattering. RPS and McLeod make a good twin.
