Personally, I would never buy anything with a 'stage' number as a selling point. Stick with proven names like ACT or Southbend via TMZ. Who recommended this kit?
Tuner, he said he used it plenty of times And never had a problem but maybe I’m the lucky one that got a bad one
 
Your flywheel looks recently machined. Did you provide your machinist the step height and did they measure the step for you?
A local Napa shop f'd mine up by not measuring and I failed to call them out on it before leaving the shop. I shouldn't have blindly trusted their work.
Here's a good article if you are in doubt:

They measure for me, but I still don’t understand it drove and shifted perfectly. And now it won’t go into gear when the car is on

They happened to me many years ago from a respected machine shop. I took it back and asked him to measure the step in front of me and he was PISSED LOL. It was off quite a bit and I made him fix it right there. He kept telling me that the height doesn't matter LOL.
 
They measure for me, but I still don’t understand it drove and shifted perfectly. And know it won’t go into gear when the car is on

So it drove perfectly and you had the flywheel machined and changed the clutch and now it's no good?
I’ll show you a picture of my old setup and why I changed it
Then sent my flywheel to get machined
