The 76 box should work fine...so swap them over and see if it cures the problem.
It may be the fix....

I swaped the 76 box and still no go. almost out of options I replaced the ignition coil and bang she fired. I thought the coil couldnt be the problem because it was only a year old.
Through all this I learned that I can replace all my ignition components including coil,mag pickup,ign box,and timing advance for only 120$. you gotta love old fords.
