Used Exedy Twin Question????

I recently picked up A used twin disc off A buddy for one hell of A deal. It was used for 5k then he upgraded to A QM after the wave clip popped off on him. I ordered replacement discs for it from STM. My question is this, should I even bother having the flywheel resurfaced/and or pressure plate/friction surfaces, or should I be alright throwing in the replacement discs and calling it A day. I'm in the middle of my first tranny swap and this is something I would rather NOT do again in A couple thousand miles
Thanks guys!

I would have the flywheel resurfaced. Inspect the intermed. plates. Look for overheating. It will be a bluish purple color in spots around plates.

It's not too bad, but there is some present around the flywheel and plates.

I will do so if I have to. I'm to the point where I unbolt the old clutch assembly and replace with the new, and really can't afford anymore downtime. Has anyone had any luck resurfacing these and have them last?
