    My costing:
    Box: $500 (W58, apparently reco'd recently)
    Bellhousing: $550 delivered (Niteparts, part of a group buy)
    Clutch: $350 (4 puck cushioned button)
    Tailshaft: $450 (Brand new one piece)
    Clutch line: $50 (Like Hen I just had a brake place put fittings on the end for me, and bent it into shape.
    Clutch slave: $20 (Brand new, to suit a T-18)
    Crossmember: My dad helped me make one up out of 12mm thick plate, lol, that bastard isn't going anywhere. Had the plate sitting around.
    Clutch fork / clips: $20
    Spigot Bearing: $12 (was on the shelf at Repco)

    I know I didn't get cheap cheap prices, because I look like a n00b (prolly cause I am one) and obviously people took me for a ride a bit.

    Price always depends on how much of a hurry you're in, how much junk you have lying around, how many friends you have with similar junk lying around and how much of your free time (or work time if possible) you spend talking shit with the local parts/clutch/wrecker guys.

    ive got a W55 the shifter still fits fine BUT shifting to 1st and 3rd can sometimes bringing your knuckles real close to the center console (punched it a few times) But this can and mine will be fixed by having the shifter remade with a dog leg in it, with in my opion is a good idea if you are a big guy and sit further back its only a good thing.

    My box conversion cost me about $1000.00 but as Hen said depends on who your mates are.

    What kind of engine do you have? Is it a stock 4AGE that just had a shit box behind it and could be replaced with a $200 T50 or some hardcore 4AGTE that needs a hard core box?
