No, but I'm eager to hear what you learn.

I have had a bit of good info from a local AT shop.  At least they 
were willing to talk a bit.  You might find that they could send your 
band (or another one) out and get it relined.  If oversized linings 
can be had, and if there is enough beef on the clutch to allow a bit 
of machining then it should be fine.  Your best bet is probably to 
try to find such a place and see if what they can fix you up with.

They will probabaly be cooperative at least as long as you are 
offering to buy parts through them.
