Adam, I'd buy synchros, gaskets, bearings, seals, and all circlips. On my last rebuild, I also bought the thrust washers on the mainshaft that you can order different thicknesses. I found on my previous two rebuilds, that I had to order different widths to get the correct tolerances. They're not that expensive, so I just ordered all available sizes. I think they're about $1.50 each and there is one that comes in three sizes. Also order the O-rings and oil seal for the speedometer bearing assembly. You may have to replace the small indent balls and springs in the synchro hub assemblies.
Two out of three rebuilds required a new oil slinger. And one out of three needed a new layshaft. If the layshaft looks good with no scoring, I would not replace it or the needle roller bearings (providing they too look smooth and round). I had some serious problems with poor quality replacement needle rollers.
