Nope.
Seriously, You'll be very lucky if the ratios are exactly the same for a start and 3rd / 4th are a pair that cannot be separated. Then you run into trouble with the reverse gear parts as 752 / 754 reverse gear idlers are different and cannot be fitted into either case, which means that the input shaft which is part of 1st / 2nd & reverse is gearcase sensitive. Neither will correctly fit the other.
AND then the 752 gears for 3rd / 4th, even if they are the right ratios, use old style weak synchro rings and you are going to end up with a right mongrel of a box....
