Tbirds were autos only from probably '61 on, afaik.
The 352 bell may be a different depth than you need for the toploader.
The toploader, is that the performance trans or the '80s OD unit?
Measure the input shaft length of the 3 speed vs. the toploader.
Since it was transplanted into an F600, anything could have been done, and you won't know what parts you have until you take it apart.
I hope you checked at least the stroke on that motor also.....

OK good, just check the depth of the bell--truck bells are 1/4" deeper, not sure on your 352 bell. The pattern should be the same, the Ford "butterfly" pattern.
Info on the trans and bell numbers here fwiw.
