Just get the LS7 clutch kit. It will come with a LS7 pressure plate & disc & LS2 flywheel. Some have said it is the same part number for the LS7 & LS2 flywheel. Pilot bearing if your is in bad shape & slave. Thats all I put in. My stock master works just fine with it.
It would depend on the condition of your own parts though.

Id recommend getting everything (slave and pilot) replaced so you wont have a problem down the road and have to drop the tranny yet again. If youre 01/02 master is in good condition I wouldnt worry too terribly much about it. Mine however had a 45* bend in it when I took it out.

Get the Slave/throwout... I forgot this and wish I had gotten it. It's still an update but is fairly worn by now. The clutch is in the process of being broken in (just got my car back last night) it's sooo good. My friend says it feels stock but grips good and should last a long time since it had a super thick contact pad.
Google Fred Beans, I got mine from them and they have awesome customer service.

I wouldn't waste the money unless yours is showing signs of startin to wear out. I'm not sayin not to get a new master, but alot on here will try to say its a must. I have zero problems in my 99' with the LS7 clutch & stock master. Hell even my pilot bearing was in perfect condition when I did my clutch swap & my car has about 90,000 miles.
A new master might be a must in higher power applications & stiffer clutches, but I do not believe its always needed.
