This is what a 14 bolt swap takes.

Another larger 5 speed Overdrive that can be made to fit, but more expensive and little more work, is the NV4500. Some searching the forum may explain that process.

It’s very likely that you could use modern drum brakes from a 14 bolt on your original Eaton, as yet another option. I haven’t researched this enough to know just what’s required, but I’d bet it’s possible and not terribly difficult.
