I wouldn't bother spending the money on a shift kit with that kind of mileage on the trans. It's bound to have a fair amount of wear already and I feel that a shift kit at this stage is a gamble on either helping or hurting the trans.

And again, would a heavy duty one from Napa do the job? Or should I be looking at Summit Racing..?

Not sure about the Napa cooler. I don't know what style of cooler it is. The Long Tru-cool style coolers seem to be the most recomended. I believe they also manufacture the B&M coolers. They are a radiator style cooler, I have been told its better to stay away from those cheapy tubed aluminum fin style coolers. Yes the are easy to install.
