The fiber clutch discs should actually be soaked in oil overnight before assembly. The metal ones only need to be coated. When installing the clutch basket, make sure the basket is not resting on the oil pump gear. It should be meshed nicely, but its easy to miss that and blow the engine.
Harbor freight is a good source of cheap calipers. You can usually find a coupon to get a digital set for about $10.
You will need a new clutch cover gasket, but the flywheel cover gasket can be reused if you use RTV on it (its metal). You can order that when you get the oil screen cover gasket.
