Finances looking a little rosier these days. Anybody got any parts or leads that might help me out with a manual tranny swap?

Are any of the items on the following page appropriate for my car?

Thanks. I've read and reread that many times and it gets me drooling each time.

The labor is beyond me, though, so I'll trust Bruno with it. I'm more concerned about sourcing all the parts, in good shape at reasonable prices. The rest is Bruno's problem :D
