winter transmission work

I've got a couple of winter projects, and I'd like to get some feedback from the forum.
1) Has anyone had the 1st-2nd synchros replaced in a 6sp? How much should I expect for the parts, how much for the labor?
2) The open diff is getting replaced with either a LSD or a TBD. I'm leaning toward the TBD, as this car is more about autocross then track. It's not much of a street car anymore. What are folks' thoughts on the TBD over the LSD. Any preferences among the manufacturers?
3) LW flywheel and sprung clutch are going in. Has anyone seen any deals lately or had any recent positive/negative experiences?
Yeah, I'll be doing the IMS while I'm in there.
FWIW, the original clutch has 140,000 miles and 5 AX seasons!!
