Thats what I want to do. Do it once, do it right.

Is that $400 for real? Was that for a whole new shaft or just having the original lengthened? I was just going to lengthen mine, if possible.

I did get all the parts today. $87 all said and done. I got the transmission, flywheel, pressure plate, clutch disc, pedal assembly, shifter assembly and linkage, brake reservoir, slave cylinder, associated hose and line, and every nut and bolt that came out. Does it sound like I missed anything?
