Now - I'm far from a guru, but, didn't your engine come from a 75 ? Don't they use a getrag gearbox ? Are they different ?

You have.

Well, the zt and zs block castings are the same, so the pg1 box should fit.

Number 25 for new dowels http://www.rimmerbros.co.uk/Item--i-GRID003326

Block castings are the same. They use different gearboxes yes, but they also use different mounting holes. You have to remove the dowels from the engine and line them up with the gearbox ones. From the pics it looks like the dowels are clashing.
