For the 1750/2000 gearboxes, I don't think you need to worry, as long as
the box comes with the bellhousing.

There was an open and a closed style bellhousing, you need the right
bellhousing for whatever kind of box you have.  Once you have the
correct box/bellhousing, they are pretty much interchangeable with each
other.

As stated earlier, neither one will interchange with the cable actuated
clutch style bellhousings.
