Default LHD manual trans conversion

Hello all, in conjunction with a remote mount turbo setup on my 2003 S8 FE, I've finally decided I'll also be going to an 01E manual box as well. I'm located in the USA, so am well-acquainted with the swap that TozoM8 did on Quattroworld. I'm trying to compile a parts list before moving forward on the project. Thus far here's what I know I'll need:

Gearbox
modified prop-shaft
half-shafts
clutch
flywheel
pedal cluster
master/slave cylinder
shifter assembly

Is there anything on this list I've missed? Also, does anyone know how to recode the ECU and cluster for the swap, and also how to keep cruise control. Thanks in advance.

As an aside, I thank all of you for dealing with my questioning, hopefully with some of the help I'm getting from the lot of you, and with my mechanical background, I can build a car that not just I enjoy, but all you who love these S8s can as well.
