Default Rear end swap queston?

I own a 1984 dodge d150 and a 1974 dodge dart sport. I want to know if I can take the 8 1/4 rear end out of my d150 and if it will mate with my dart? My dart currently has a 7 1/4 in it which will not be big enough for the amount of HP/Torque that I will be pushing. Does anyone know if this will work? Will I have to shorten it? Will I need bigger leaf springs?

Thank you!
