Default Spec Stage 1 Clutch Help!

I am going to be ordering a Spec Stage 1 clutch kit for my 1996 mustang v6. I need to get the cable and quadrent as well which i m getting the firewall mounted adjustable. The car has 140k miles on it not sure if the flywheel ever been replaced. I want to know should I get the Spec flywheel as well or will I be just fine with a stock one resurfaced. Its not a race car or anything its all stock and just used to commute for school. I just want to be sure that the stock flywheel resurfaced wont screw up my new Spec clutch. They say on there site it just gives more life to the new clutch but how true is that and how much more life. i m really tight on money so spending another $250.00 on a new flywheel or spending $30 to resurface my stock one. I want to just resurface I just want to be sure it wont harm the new Spec clutch. If anyone can confirm this for me asap being I want to order it up. Thanks

Ok thanks. I mean if its gunna destroy the clutch in like 1 year then id get the flywheel as long as it bolts up to the stock flywheel though I guess it will be fine and it should bolt in fine.
