Default Monster Slave vs GM Slave Question

Ordering a new clutch. I've got a 2004 Z06.

It has been recommended to me to go with a Monster S-series triple disc. Everywhere I look it seems to be the recommendation to just go with a GM slave, the issue is, with the Monster triple disc, it is a shorter slave bc of the height of the triple - so it is a Monster branded slave... Just wanted to get some folks' opinions on them if you all don't mind?

The other option would be to go with a twin disc, but for the power level I'm looking at (850) it seems that I would have to go with an aggressive twin disc, as opposed to a "factory-like" triple disc.

What do you guys think of the Monster slave's? As good as GM? Not as good?

Thanks!

Curious - have you looked at the Tick setup? They have their own Slave/Master that is based on Tilton stuff. Already dialed in - and I've never heard anyone say a bad word about them (which is rare)

If it comes with a different size slave then that’s what you have to use and I would definitely go triple at that power level
