Default McLeod RXT Clutch with Fidanza Aluminum Flywheel?

I had another thread asking a more open ended question but don't I had too many questions in there - so I have a simpler one.

Is anyone running the RXT clutch with a non-McLeod aluminum flywheel? I haven't called McLeod about this because I assume they will just recommend I buy theirs.

This is my flywheel:

This is the clutch I want to run:

Are there any problems?

I ran a McLeod RST with a Ram aluminum flywheel in my old Terminator. Worked fine after getting the pressure plate torqued correctly. Worked like **** without it torqued to the specs that McLeod gives. The guy who initially installed it didn't read the directions I guess. I know plenty of Terminator owners run McLeod TD clutches with Fidanza flywheels and seem to be happy.

The RST/RXT will work with a LS1/LS6 flat style flywheel design from any manufacture for the LS application. Just make sure the crank relief is 6.250" or less for correct disc to flywheel contact. The flywheels pictured in the links appear to be LS2/LS3/LS7 recessed flywheels and in those cases the RST/RXT adapter plate will NOT bolt up correctly.
