Default Confusing-which clutch?

I currently have a wrecked 02 Z06 I am working on. It was hit hard enough to break the clutch slave. After reading many posts and replys about clutches and slaves I am lost. I am having a motor built with a procharger and expect 550 to 600 RWHP. Do I use the GM Stock slave and which clutch for mostly street with no hard launches? I would like a stock feel with no chatter and not more than $800(do I need to spend more?). I also have an adjustable McLeod master I am considering installing. Thanks in advance. Ken

I would look at the cartek or aussi clutch. I have the cartek in my car right now and it has been working great . I have about 15K miles and about 25 passes at the 1/4 on dr's . They are rated up to
700 TQ. And will be in the $$ ballpark. And will come with a ajustable slave and master.

use a Z06 slave and master. I would suggest looking at the RPS clutch.
