Default slave/master question

I have an 01 WS6 and a new clutch is in the future. I ran a search and see that if you have a 01-02 F-body that you already have the "upgraded" GM hydrolics. Well I am sure that they are starting to go since now at after high rpm runs I have to pump the clutch pedal to get it to go back down to third from fourth. The only master cylinder I see out there is the McLeod and it does not have the most stellar rep. Any other suggestions, like 03-04 Z06 master/slave combo with a drill mod, braded lines ect....

I just changed my slave W/ my motor swap. I didnt have any problems before I did the swap. You have to pull the trans to change the slave, so if you do that and you still have you problem then change the master, might save you some $$. You can also get the gm replacement master and make it adjustable if you dont want to get the mecload.

gm master and slave do work very well
drill mod on factory master is all that usally needs to be done
being an 01 depends on milage if id change em or not but you are already inthere so the slave wouldnt be a bad idea
