Default which pilot bearing for CTS-V T56?

I’m installing a 2006 M12 T56 Cadillac CTS-V tranny on to a 1998 LS1 F-Body (originally automatic LS1).
Which pilot bearing should I use? I have the early Rifle (hollowed) style crank, so I need the larger style pilot bearing. I thinking I will need the 2006 6.0L pilot bearing that the caddy used pn-12557583. Can anyone help me with this dilemma?
Thanks,
Danny

Dual mass you mean? FWIW, with the LS7 clutch you can use an LS7 slave with no spacers or anything with the V trans. You can also run about any direct LS7 replacement with the LS7 slave with no other mods.

Correct Dual mass, So I can use LS7 slave/ LS2 flywheel & LS7 clutch and be ok?
