I agree with Terry, 7 1/4" clutch TD gearbox will not bolt into a TF unless
you change the bell housing. There are other minor internal
differences/improvements between the two boxes. A 7 1/4" clutch/bell
housing   TD box ( early ) has a 5/8" diameter clutch cross shaft, the 8"
late TD/TF bell housing has a 3/4" clutch cross shaft.
