Right on, thanks.
Anyone have an opinion on the condition of the flywheel? Obviously rusty and what look like some score marks. Should/ it be resurfaced? Also, does The orientation of the pressure plate matter in regards to the position on the flywheel? Asking as they arrived separated and I can't seem to find any common marks.

Honestly, all the components look to be in good condition other than some minor surface rust. I don't think it needs to be resurfaced. If the rust cleans up with some sand paper or some Scotchbright then I would go with it.
As for orientation, from what I remember with my LT1-S clutch, it is the spacers that matter. Just need to make sure they are in their original positions. Because of the rust marks, it should be pretty easy to match the original position of the pressure plate. But I would use a punch to make some witness marks on the flywheel, pressure plate, and each spacer so that after you clean everything you can put everything back exactly as it was. Maybe 1 dot, 2 dots, 3 dots for each of the three round and square spacers and their locations in relation to the pressure plate and flywheel.

They make mention of the spacers near the bottom of the page.
