Default Reusing flywheel?

I have a Spec stage one clutch that it begining to slip very badly. I am getting either a LS7 or a centerforce clutch soon. Can I reuse the flywheel that the spec clutch came with? The clutch and flywheel have about 10,000 miles on them.

If you get the LS7 clutch, you HAVE to also get an LS2 flywheel. I highly recommend this setup (I run it in my car). Clutch effort is like stock, it is cheap (a little over $400 for everything including the new flywheel), and it works incredibly well. If you do get something else that is compatible with the stock flywheel then you should at least get the flywheel resurfaced. Only problem with that is then you may have to shim the clutch due to the flywheel being thinner. OR you can just buy a new flywheel to go with the new clutch. Whatever you do, I would not install a new clutch with an old (or non-resurfaced) flywheel.
