Does anyone know if an all synchro three rail gearbox from a MKIV Spitfire
(round drive flange) can be used as a direct bolt in replacement for a MK2
gearbox?

Yes, it can, and you need do little more than change the front propshaft
flange to one from that same MkIV. U-joints are the same. The gearbox is a
fraction of an inch longer, but that's often taken care of with the sliding
splines of the propshaft, as I recall.
