Default Resurface flywheel after 6k?

My new clutch is in the mail, I'm reusing my old flywheel (only 6k miles on it) Its a ram truebalance billet steel one. Should I be prepared to resurface it ? Or can I get by just bolting a new ram to it and calling it good?

If it makes any difference the new clutch is another RAM HD Powergrip (hopefully this one lasts longer than 6k)

Have the flywheel resurfaced. You want a smooth contact surface since you're starting with a new clutch.

yeah it was a mute point after I pulled off the PP. That flywheel is BAD gouged and scorched all over, theres no way I could do it without resurfacing it.
