"You still need to know what gears are in the original case. If the tower was changed it is possible the gears were changed. And if not, that later tower will not be working correctly."

Exactly.

Keith, you really need to go to Mac Van Pelt's website that he posted. Look for "GEAR SETS USED" and identify which gears are installed in the transmission that's in your car. The pictures are excellent.

If you can't do that, contact a local Ford V8 club and get somebody that really knows what they're doing ... or you are going to waste time and money messing around. You have a wonderful car that deserves your best effort.
