Default Flywheel for a McLeod RST Clutch

I'm going to buy a McLeod RST clutch for my 546rwhp C5.

$689.99+free shipping

My biggest concern is the flywheel. According to the McLeod website, the RST must be used with a LS1 flat style flywheel. Will it work with an 12571611 LS7 flywheel?

"Needs LS1 Flat style flywheel with this application."
If the LS7 flywheel doesn't work with the McLeod RST, what is the part number for the LS1 C5 flywheel?
Could/should I use a billet steel Spec LS1/LS6 flywheel ($233.10) with the McLeod clutch?

I'm also planning on purchasing the following. Does this look like the right set-up?

I run a Spec flywheel with my RXT and it works just fine. I bought that flywheel because it was on sale at the time but any LS1 style flywheel will work. The LS7 flywheel will not work with the RST/RXT clutch.
