Default Clutch problems

So i've been having some clutch issues lately, which are really starting to get annoying

The trans is a NV4500 in a 2500hd

First off, I have a centerforce dual friction in the truck, everything else(master/slave cylinder) is stock and original.

The WOT shifts have gotten noticeably slower over the last few months, like it won't shift at all till the rpms drop.

Yesterday, I broke the master cylinder off the firewall for the 2nd time in 2 months.

It sounds like it needs a new TO bearing, so i'm thinking that is making the system bind a little bit, and breaking my master cylinder mounts.

I'm also thinking that the Centerforce clutch isn't good and those cool weights on the clutch fingers are jammed up somewhere.

Is anybody running any other clutches that are working better for them, Mcleod, Ram....any thoughts?

I'm also thinking about swapping out the master/slave for Mcleod ones, the slave bolts in easy, but I need to modify the master.

Has anyone used these and how well do they work?

I'm not too worried on modifying the mount for the master, because i am going to have to make something for the stock master anyway, as I keep breaking the stock plastic mount, and i'm getting tired to having to drive the truck around with no clutch...
