Default Clutch Pressure Plate

Can you use a pressure plate from a manufacturer that is different than the clutch disk?

For example, Spec has an aluminum pressure plate. Can I use that pressure plate with a new stock ls1 clutch disk?

I can buy a new clutch disk for $68 on ebay. Spec has their aluminum pressure plate for $175. would this combination work?

Is this a bad idea? My car is stock. No racing, just daily driver.
