Jess,
Not sure if anyone has a complete kit, but I am sure if you found one it
would not be cheap. Ebay often has someone selling the parts from a donor
car. Just found the listing below - I know nothing about the offering or
seller, just found out through the search:

You can easily use the 4.2 but your happiness will depend on how you use the
car. For just local short drives it should be fine and give nice punch off
the line, on the highway it will likely rev higher than you like. I am
assuming you have a 4 speed. With an overdrive on a 5 speed it will also be
fine. The pumpkin is relatively easy to change so you leave the 4.22 until
you decide. If you change the rear and want an accurate speedometer you
also need to change the gear in the transmission.
