Default 6speed clutch into 5 speed box

Hi all I'm told I can fit a six speed clutch and fly into a five speed box bellhousing with a little grinding
Reason being I'm gonna run close to 400bhp and if the box don't survive long I won't have to buy another clutch
Anyone done this ???

Got this sorted and working great a while ago now have my 2.1 run in milage done and am sourcing last few bits before mapping
I found its alot easier to remove the flywheel again build up the clutch and pressure plate onto it and then slide it into the gearbox shaft that way it's pretty easy to tell where the contact points are
