Is this clutch shot? This is a clutch for a T56 on an LT1 F-body. Supposedly this is a new clutch with about 1,000 miles on it.
I don't know crap about looking at a clutch/flywheel and assessing its condition, but the flywheel looks scary to me. Don't know about the clutch disc, but I don't like the places where it looks like the friction material is "scuffed."
What do you guys think? Can I just resurface the flywheel or does the clutch need to be replaced too?

that looks like a China replacement clutch...wear for stated milage looks "normal"
If it were my car I would get the FW resurfaced for $40 and buy a real clutch
basically you get hat you pay for. that clutch is a $200 replacement. $500 and up is the next step.
ZOOM, SPEC, RAM are some options
