Don't worry about drive train get gauges, EGT, Fuel pressure, Boost...Start adding power until you got what you like...first drive train item your will need is a clutch.

Welcome , the Clutch , then do a search for 5th gear nut , not sure what yrs. or if it applies to yours .
Problem is thats only 1 , now that your ready for the power your done , you need to have the truck be able to handle the power so theres at least 2 , so maybe one of the power box's , I think that at the home page here they sell to support the site , member prices .
Warning , you may not be able to STOP at one .

If you drive it hard the edge will slip the clutch so plan on a clutch within 10K of the edge box. just so you have it budgeted...Like I said get gauges or your driving on borrowed time...FP or lack of kills VP's and that's big $$$
