Andy,
I too live in Austin. Last year I sent my car to Jake and Back, door to door pickup for 800$.
However there does seem to be a shop here in austin that may be able to help you.
contact "autodoctor911" here on the forum.

Its not that far away. Take an extended weekend and come see us.. We just had a car leave to go back home to Indiana yesterday.. He was able to make a run through the "Tail of the Dragon" on his way back home! We've carried out the IMSR for clients in 18 states so far, including one from California!

Jake,
If someone were to drive to you and wait for the work to be done how long, barring no unforeseen problems, would you need to do the work? Let's include a clutch job with it.

This happens routinely. Someone will be here on Monday from Louisiana for the IMSR procedure.
We give ourselves a 3 day window to carry out the work. This includes the entire procedure, before and after dyno evaluation as well as my extensive test drive to ensure there are no issues or leaks after the work is done. I drive the cars a MINIMUM of 90 miles and sometimes as much as 400 if we have the car long enough.
The car will arrive here on Monday and will leave my facility fully retrofitted on Wednesday afternoon. I'll only have time to drive this car about 100 miles, which is fine as issues always show up early if they are going to exist. (usually on the dyno)
BTW- We ALWAYS include a clutch arrangement, its mandatory.
We prefer drop off on a Monday and pick up on Wednesday afternoon.. There are plenty of things to do in our area while we are doing our work. We do not have an area for people to 'wait" here at the facility, we operate rater differently than most :-)
We also refuse to rush, we have the process so worked out and do it so much (4 already this month) that we know how long its going to take..

Is there a flat rate for the procedure you mention in this post?
does it include a rear seal?

That was me.  Here's my report on the drive back, and a couple of pics:
