Default Manual swap a8L

Hello I am planning on swapping my A8lwb to manual and I am wondering if the 6 speed from A4 b5 Quattro 1.9 tdi would work? The part number starts with 01E but is this some inferior 01E because of it being bolted to a small tdi? Or should this be fine? Reason I want to use the 1.9 gearbox is because I found a complete car for sale for 250£ so i would easily make that back selling parts and then have a almost free gearbox and diff combo. Also I am wondering if anyone knows how the lwb driveshaft is extended when compared to a swb shaft.Do I need to get it lengthened and balanced or are there any cheaper options with spacers different driveshaft or something like that. Clutch I read b5 s4 clutch and flywheels would work can anyone confirm this? They are pretty cheap and would like to cut costs as much as possible without compromising quality to much. I also found a guy selling oem d2 manual pedal cluster, front driveshafts, shifter linkage, gearbox mounts and clutch line so those are good.
