What are you building the truck for? Street rod or tow rig? If a tow rig, imo you'd be better off with some upgraded pistons than a turbo. The 440 should already have ample torq for towing. A decent compression ratio would help get the efficiency up.

The only thing worth using is the exhaust manifold with a big turbo and blow through setup.
That is my plan, but not for towing. I found a rv turbo exhaust manifold on ebay oem never used for $300.
It has a t4 flange.
Parts from this kit don't come up as often as they used to.
