Default Whats worth replacing, master or slave?

About to do the clutch on my car, went FI over the weekend and it slips over 6000rpm and just curious, i have a 2000 F-body with the old style hydrolics, should i replace the master and slave with the new 2001+ style or just the slave? I have a little over 90,000 miles on the car? Thanks

I'd just do the slave for now. That seems to be the main problem part. My old master is working great with the newer slave.

Is that true? I always thought it was the master than was the more important piece.

How did the engagment points and overall feel change with the newer slave and the original master?

So is it the slave or master that causes most problems like the clutch pedal sticking to the floor after driving it hard? Thanks
