Yes should fit fine mate, got the clutch plate aswell but no release bearing. Should be able to reuse yours as a cheap solution hopefully... don't want anything for it just pleased to help. Are you in Chelmo ? Someone else might be able to offer labour?

I wouldnt touch Mr Clutch with a barge pole mate, heard to many stories about refirbed clutches and poor quality workman ship. A friend has a Ford Racing Puma and only wanted a new back box and centre pipe fitted, popped in a few hours later and they were trying to saw the orginal pipe of from the cat!

If your in Southend I've use ABC autos down Southchurch Road before, its only 10 mins from Mr Clutch and I've always been happy with them
