Default What else is needed in my new setup???

Just installed a Ram Powergrip, Ram Billet Flywheel, and 01 GM Slave. Was I suppose to do anything else, or buy any other parts to replace since I was in the area??? Whats your suggestion???

check to make sure your master cyl is still in good condition and do the drill mod or you will most likely have problems with your setup...

drill mod

drill mod is a must and what I also did was have the PP balanced to the flywheel.

not just slippage....its not such a radical idea that when you upgrade your entire clutch and hydrolic system that the only stock peice left will be the straggler.

take my word for it...depending how many miles you have i would just replace it.... and if money isnt an issue i would even look into going with an adjustable master.
