Is theirs a '...6AA', then? Or even if it's a '...5BA' or '...4BA', it looks like they have all the same ratios and FD as the '...1AA' anyway, so should be okay(?)

Just noticed that yours being a '...54' means that it has a stronger casing. Those others are the weaker casing '...52' 'boxes - now not sure if it'll fit 
I know that later boxes had 8 (instead of the early ones' 4) bellhousing bolts, but not sure if that's just for New Age cars, though
Try PM'ing APIDavid - he should be able to help...

The 8 bolt fixing was introduced on the Classic cars in 1999 at the same time as the Phase II engine. (EJ205/207)
A 4 bolt box will fit an 8 bolt engine block if you wish to go that route.
