Default A4 to M6 Swap

I know that someone has done an M5 to M6 swap, but has anyone swapped an A4-M6 in the NBS trucks? My main questions are:

Getting a clutch pedal
I went to the dealer last night, and it looks like I can order just the clutch and brake pedals and use the existing A4 bracketry under the dash. Can anyone confirm?

Crossmember location
Is the M5 crossmember different that the A4?

Master Cylinder location
Where is the clutch master cylinder located? Are there any other parts (brake booster, etc) that are unique to the M5?

Gauges/Computer Tuning
How will I get the gauges to work? I'm sure that I can get the computer part okay since I have EDIT, but what would I need to turn on/off in the program?

Is there anything else that I'm missing? Driveshaft? Tranny mount? Any other advice?

Will the clutch be able to handle all the extra load (weight)?

I'm looking into getting a SPEC Stage 3, or the McCleod twin disc.
