You use to use that kit you have to take the trans almost fully parts to replace the output shaft,So keep that in mind and budget and if it was me id have a trans shop rebuild it and beef it up to handle the power you have.And you will have to replace both driveshafts since the over drive trans is longer then yours keep that in mind.You might get lucky and get a used from one off a later truck but the rear im not sure if you can find one the right size or not.Worse case i have had driveshafts made locally for 350 each at a big diesel repair shop.
