Go with the updated (01 and newer) slave (which you already have, but go with new if you're over 100k), get the regular pilot bearing. Leave the factory master also. Factory parts are just fine.
Get some red and some blue loctite. Red on the flywheel bolts, blue on the PP bolts.

thanks thanks a lot.
my WS6 has 43,000 on the clock.
i will probably buy oem pilot bearing from the auto parts store as well as the master cylinder incase i dont need them.
what about the throwout bearing? is it the same for ls7 clutch as my stock LS1/LS6 clutch? i'll need a new one of those too and it doesnt come in the kit
