Frank -
I haven't done anything like this but I'll comment anyway...
The flanges on later gearboxes were thicker (and thus had more strength) so
I think you would want to go with those.
You do realize that the TR bell housing & gearbox case are all one casting
so (I presume) you're looking at cutting and welding to make a bolt-up bell
housing for the Toyota box? There are, of course, kits for all this.
