this is the reason why I only went with a SVT flywheel in my swap .... but the built HMS MTX that I got had the coated gears, quiafe, new shift forks, etc. I would go for everything.

You can also buy an entire gear set with different ratios from quaife i think.... but it'd be expensive as ... well you get the idea.
