Default Replacing clutch. Help.

I am putting a centerforce DF clutch in my Camaro this weekend. I am using the stock flywheel and master. Replacing the slave. Do I need shims or anything else for this install. I don't think I do but want to make sure. Thanks

Where do you get shims from if they don't come with your clutch? And how do you know which to use? I'm putting in a Ram HD w/ a resurfaced flywheel. But I will also have an adjustable master cylinder...

Just be careful when you "Resurface" that you take to much off of it. I just went though that. I had the flywheel surfaced and it turned out so did the guy that had my car before me. Long story short I had to pull it all apart and change the Flywheel after I had just got it back together
