Height and weight?

I am a nice MT size but a L drysuit is not too bad. I have a Stohlquist that is 
pretty wide, but am thinking of switching to a Kokatat.  I think a Level6 might 
be pretty good if you can find one.  I tried an M and an XL this year and from 
that I think the L would be pretty good.

Is there a brand that offers "medium tall" that I have overlooked?  I have a Neil Pride wetsuit that is a medium-tall, and the fit is perfect.  Although a drysuit has a looser fit, I am looking for a similar size match.  Is this achievable?  Or do I have to buy a "large" an accept the fact that the fit is going to be a little bit "baggy?"  Or, alternatively, do I have to pay a $fortune$ for something that is customize made?
