I like option B.

The problems for me never end, I had to tow my Father's S10 elsewhere to get it fixed, and the power to the barn (where my parts are) is down right now. I wasn't able to get back in the daylight to get any measurements for you this weekend, but I will strive for them this upcoming weekend, if you haven't managed to get them already.

You must remember that if you have to use an adapter that is thicker than the existing one, you'll also need to space the flywheel so that the clutch is sitting at the proper depth on the input shaft. It may be best to machine the existing flywheel, so that depth can be properly considered when mounting the transmission to the engine.

My $0.02.
