Default Info needed on Spec 3

I got this Spec 3 off ebay and noticed a few chips on the disc. Is this going to be ok?

Also, can someone reference the numbers to confirm that it will work on a 98 Z28?

Thanks

The disc should be ok but I'm not positive thats an actual Spec clutch. The pressure plate looks like someone just painted it a cheap blue to look like a Spec pressure plate. Plus the fact that theres no "SPEC" markings or stickers anywhere on the flywheel, disc or the pressure plate. My old Spec 3+ had markings on all 3 components.

You know, I had the same feeling about the cheap blue paint, cause after handling it today I had a little blue paint on my hands. What about the numbers on the parts?

According to Spec's site, the part # should be "SC093" for the Spec stage 3.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but that is not one of our kits. The plate, disc, and flywheel evidence that these are knock-offs. Let me know if you have any questions and please send me the link to the ebay seller that provided these. Thanks,
