Default Clutch Replacement

I am in the Army and am currently based in Arizona. My car(98 model with approx 55k miles) is located in North Alabama. Luckily it is located about 5 minutes from Hinson. Im gathering a parts list to order and they are doing the install so it will all be done before I go home only to drive it to Fort Hood Texas. I am planning on getting a supercharger installed within the next year(550hp-ish goal) and would like to replace all parts that are needed or recommended while everything is apart. So far I have this link: http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c5-z...ment-plus.html
I've decided on the Mantic street single with ER2 from ECS along with Master Cylinder Kit Tick Performance
Speed Bleed Kit Tick Performance
ARP Pro Series Flywheel Bolt Kit Tick Performance
Pilot Bearing
Axle seals
Side cover 'O' rings
Rear cover 'O' ring
Trans/diff seal 'O' ring
Output shaft seal (inner)
Output shaft seal (outer)
Anything I'm missing? Recommendations on where to order the seals and such? Thanks in advance for all help!

Add the Tick Remote Bleeder, I also replaced the TT couplers while the tube was out. My old ones still looked good but I'm glad I replaced them.

Excellent choice! I have that same clutch. How come your doing a Tick master? I have the ECS adjustable with no issues with high RPM shifts or sticky pedal.
