Default clutch suggestion

My car is in the body shop right now and they noticed the clutch was sticking so they actually called me yesterday and told me that if I wanted to replace my clutch now would be the time since insurance is taking care of the slave cylinder and labor. I have a 2003 z06 with cam and full exhaust and was just wondering what clutch I should go with? Keep in mind its Friday right now and I only have untill Monday. I am in the Dallas Fort worth area and originally wanted to go with a monster clutch, but have heard mixed reviews that have made me second guess my opinion.

If you have plan for FI in future please install a twin disck like Mcleod RST or RXT and use your own flywheel.

Or ACT twin disk.

Both single disk and twin disk support high HP however perf single disk pedal woul be like brick and once clutch fluid becomes hot and pedal becomes harder even more.
