Default Clutch Assembly Help

I am looking at a clutch replacement on my C5. The forum suggested also replacing the clutch cylinder as well as the clutch slave cylinder. I am looking for suggestions as to what parts to use including flywheel! I would like to be able to purchase everything I need as a “kit”, looking for suggestions as well as any tips to make the installation simple and easy. This is my DD driven spiritedly; however, not abused - might see tracktime twice, three times a year on club track days. Quality is paramount - price is always a consideration. Thank you in advance.

I installed a Monster Clutch kit that included slave cylinder, flywheel and clutch alignment tool and new flywheel and clutch bolts. Get a stock GM clutch master cylinder. Also install a remoter bleeder at this time. Big help in the future. The monster setup has been great. If your running stock HP a stage one clutch will probably be fine. Talk to Steve at Monster he is a big help.
