Default twin disc flywheel question

I am wanting to switch from billet steel to an aluminum flywheel for my mcleod street. Is the aluminum flywheel that comes with the street twin different than there aluminum flywheel that they sell separately online? Is the twin disc flywheel specific?
Thanks!

The twin disc flywheel is specific for its application. It is thinner than the one in the single disc clutch to compensate for the intermediate plate and additional disc thickness. Notice the tan spacers under the pressure plate.
The whole unit is also balanced together and marked.

Should I just sell my existing setup to help fund a new twin disc with an aluminum flywheel? Thank you for clearing that up for me. I wasn't sure and you confirmed what I was thinking!
