My ls1 is being rebuilt and I'm expecting 440 Rwhp.

I have a stock clutch that is ok. Should I upgrade to a stage 1 clutch, like spec or diamond? I only want to spend around $300 for the new clutch.

Should I replace the flywheel if mine is ok?

My slave cylinder has 103,000 miles on it. Someone told me I should go ahead and replace it since you have easy access.

Will a factory slave cylinder and throw out bearing bearing be ok? Or do I need an aftermarket?

I plan on buying this stuff today, so any help would be great.

At that HP you're going to go through clutches. A "Level 1" anything isn't going to be rated for that. If you want to go cheap get a LS7 and then it would have a matching new flywheel. There's also no way I'd reuse a 10,000 mile slave. Been there and done that and it leaked in less than a year but I guess you'll be replacing the clutch again sooner than later with an undersized one so maybe just let it go.

I may have made an assumption and if you're just going to drive around the street normally a 1 will work fine. If you drive it hard and launch it it won't be.

I don't plan on launching at the track. There's no point in me punching from a stand still, because before all I did was spin out. I just want something that I can daily drive and won't break my leg to press the clutch. I may just get on it every now and again from a roll.

Try posting in the appropriate section next time please. The internals section is no place for clutch questions.
