There is no thread like the one you suggest, until now....
Yes, you can do the upgrade in the order you outline. The Main Board Kit will work well to start, and the shunt regulators can be added at any time after that. Ultimately, it's also possible to improve the sound quite a bit by adding Lundahl output transformers. Operated using the original power transformer and 50mA of bias current, the 6P3S-E tubes sound very good. I was using them in mine until I increased the voltage by replacing the power transformer with my SST-70 power transformer. The increased voltage was simply too much at that point and I had to switch to either 6550s or KT-120s.
