My team's been doing this for the past few years, and it really helps. No wasted time rummaging through drawers for tools, less time wasted bumping elbows as students work in a tighter space than they're used to, and much more efficient use of the space because we're always improving our pit layout.
As for part storage, my only suggestion is to use clear plastic containers. As convenient as the totes from Recycle Rush are, we ended up giving most of them to teachers for their storage.
