Question Rear end question??

I tore apart my rear end tonight, That I'd plan on using in my '68,
It is a 5 lug, that I got out of a '71, along with the disk brake front end,

when I got into it , the spider gears are wore out, along with the shaft, My question is, shoud I hunt for new spider gears( I have another 71 rearend, that could be in the same or worst shape, also have a '68 six lug rearend(that I beleive the spider gears will interchange), or with a hopped up 454 W/ turbo 400, should I look for a different rearend? with lower gears?

current gears are 3.08, do I need lower gears?
This will not be a daily driver, It will be a romper stomper week end toy, that I hope to out run some folks with....
what are ya'lls thoughts, and opinions
