Default RPS clutch help

Someone is selling an RPS BC2 clutch locally, I saw the pix and it's 6 bolt. It was on an LS7 C6. I have an LS1 C5.

I called RPS and some lady answered, told me to call Carolina clutch and spoke with Tom at first he didn't sound sure but then he said as long as the bolt pattern is the same it should be okay. Didn't sound 100%

The reason I am still scared is that there are two different part numbers:

http://www.speedinc.com/shop-by-manu...-flywheel.html

The seller is selling the billet flywheel, coming off a C6.

Notice the part numbers:

#BC2-04LSX-C6-S Billet Carbon Twin Disc clutch and steel flywheel kit for all C6

#BC2-04LSX-C5-AL Billet Carbon Twin Disc clutch and Alum flywheel kit for all C5

So... there is a C5 and C6 code.. and the S for billet steel and AL for aluminum...

Can someone pitch in?

I also found this site:

ST-04LSX-C5 Street Twin Carbon clutch and flywheel kit for all C5 Chevrolet Corvette's $1,695.00

ST-04LSX-C6 Street Twin Carbon clutch and flywheel kit for all C6 Corvette's (includes special RPS C6 TOB) $1,795.00

So it seems the only difference may be the C6 TOB?
