Default Z06 clutch for 98 vert question

If I replace my 98 vert clutch with new Z06 clutch, will it fit?
Do I need to replace clutch slave cylinder and clutch master cylinder?
Thanks
:cheers:

Mike, I did all three on my '98 and it is worth the extra bucks. My '98 is putting down some 410 RWHP and 390RWT with 17" BFG Drag Radials on the back end and all is well; no mushy pedal or one that sticks to the floor etc. Select your installer well and good luck with your choices.

mike76002,

As others have stated, the answer to your questions is yes (all cases).

I would suggest that you give John (21st Century) a call regarding the methods they use to forestall any of the dreaded 'clutch on the floor'.

Had them do my Z06 clutch, and what a joy it is!
