Search Google for spocalc, Excel spreadsheet that will help you calculate lengths. You just need to be able to measure hubs and rim ERD.
eBay can help you out with spokes. This seller has sold to some forum members, though not me personally:

danscomp.com also has good prices on Sapim spokes:

I called them and although they are a BMX shop they can do road lengths. I may try them for my next build.
