Default Where to pick up a flywheel FAST?

On Thursday I made an appointment to get my clutch installed on this next Tuesday (bought a used Z06 one w/ pressure plate). The mechanic said he highly recommends getting a new flywheel. Unfortunately I didn't have time to start looking until today. I called AutoZone and they said it was a special order item only and wouldn't be able to get it in until Wednesday. Called the dealer and they only sell the entire kit (for $600!!! ). I really don't want to (read: can't afford to) spend 300-400 for a flywheel.

Any suggestions?

PS. I already bought and received a pilot bearing and throwout bearing.

I got a new one back when I got my SPEC stage 3. It hasn't been turned, no. Will I need to shim it if I get it turned? I want to do things right, but for as cheap as possible though, heh.
