Replacing your lid would not be very wise... get a stall converter.

put it in a cookie jar and wait till you get your tax return...then spend it on quality parts.

gears would be a good upgrade, heck you can probably pickup a used 6spd rear that will have 3.42s

Gears, or suspension. You aren't going to use NOS all the time driving around, gears and suspension you will.
