Yes, you can use any of the newer clusters in your 2000. They are plug and play.
A part number isn't really needed, as the cost new would be prohibitive. A dealer probably wouldn't sell you a new one, unless they put in the mileage stored in the PCM or the current cluster. There would be that labor charge on top of the part cost.
The only catch is if you use an R/T or SRT cluster, you will need to remove the parking/brake warning lamp. It will not shut off in a regular neon.
Edit: If you don't have SKIM, you will need to remove the bulb for the red dot in the Tach clucter.
You will also have to wait until the mileage matches, or do the math to determine actual mileage. A dealer will only add mileage to a cluster, if you can find one that is willing, and has a tech that knows how.
