in the first half of the video, are you testing the shimming with the cutoff lever installed? if the selector isn't all the way to full auto, the cutoff will engage slightly and create an intermittent click that I'm hearing.

as many as needed. bevel to pinion often leads to everything being shimmed SIGNIFICANTLY _higher_ than the spur method (had one gearbox where it was almost 1.5mm, yes millimeters, higher than the spur method most cases aren't nearly that extreme.) rather unlike what some people would forcibly tell you to believe, there's no preset amount of shimming in gearboxes, the tolerances are just all over the place and every gearbox will be different.
