Hi
I'd try to get my hands on a ef / el gearbox, preferably a reco'd one. I would stay away from an EA box as the ratios would be too low and it would mean higher engine revs. EB 4.0L - EL 40.L had the same ratios. Also later model boxes had reverse gear syncro.
Tailshaft should be the same as all the EA - EL T5 gearboxes had the same housing. I'm prety sure you should just be able to use your original auto tailshaft and cross member also.
