1911 80% Build

So after doing the AR15 80% lowers, I'm looking for a bigger challenge and may try a 1911 80% frame build to a complete functioning 45acp. I realize this would be a far more advanced project and would take much more time. But time is not a problem. And yes, I already have a factory built 1911 and love it. Now I would like to build one if possible.
My question is this; Are there any complete kits available from a quality manufacturer for this kind of build?
I've found numerous parts on different websites, but only one true complete kit that come with a frame as well. I was looking for more options other than just one place.
Any ideas?

However, I'm looking for a project that's fairly involved and will take a lot of time. I don't want it to be over too fast. The AR lowers were way, way too easy. And they were done too quickly. It kind of took the fun out, somewhat. That's also the main reason I like to single stage reload, it takes time.
Anyway, I appreciate your input and am already looking at Caspian and others.
I'll look into the Fusion website next.
