Default Need help asap with a cv issue please?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Hey guys what's going on. I'm relatively new here, been doing a bunch of browsing and research.

So here's what I've got going on

2002 Dale Earnhardt edition ss (my car)
Did the l67 entire swap, 4t65eHD, and the wiring harness. So I bought a passenger side cv shaft due to it being different. Installed it, it clicked in to the Trans, slid it into the hub and it felt kind of short to me. I confirmed it was the right one and part number (purchased at advanced) so I proceeded to tighten down the hub nut....now when I tightened it down it kind of pulled the cv joint out, so the inner boot is extended way far out...and the cv became very loose inside the Trans, it can easily be wiggled around and I'm getting a Trans leak out of the brand new seal I put in. And a shake between 57-65 mph.

So I bought the right cv, installed it properly, but it doesn't seem to fit correctly? Is there a specific cv you have to use for this swap? Im confused, this is the only problem I had with the entire project. Please I need some info. Thanks

Here's a link to them on rock auto

2004 CHEVROLET MONTE CARLO 3.8L V6 Supercharged CV Half Shaft Assembly | RockAuto

my guess is that you may have gotten one that is for the non hd tranny as they are different lengths from what I believe,

Thanks I'll check it out. There's no way it's for a non HD though, the splines are different and the shaft is shorter than my original one out of my non HD Trans. That's why I'm confused. I looked them up multiple places for an 05 supercharged ss.
