You are my hero!

I think today we can just try to be as accurate as possible and have "Likely atches of VIN sequences".
In any case that means if you have a "M" on a 1962 car, it very likely means it is correct type, but not the exact one.

Last question: The cast iron were Grey or "Ford blue"?

L (high nickel) sets = aluminum cased Cobra transmissions

K (high nickel) sets = aluminum cased Cobra transmissions introduced sometime in the CSX22xx range, example he knows CSX2246 had a K set originally, my black car CSX2310 was fitted with a K set.

M (high nickel) sets = aluminum cased Cobra transmissions introduced sometime in the CSX23xx range, his belief was that the later the chassis was the more likely it was fitted with a M set.

The tough part to deal with is chassis were not finished in order so it is meanless to think that since car CSX2xxx was fitted with "such and such" that chassis CSX2xxx±1 or 2 or whatever got the same part or assembly. Case in point AC Cars wise CSX2126 was finished at AC before CSX2080 was completed at AC. CSX2126 was rushed to SAI ahead of other chassis so even at SAI it was running much earlier than any other cars numercialy close to it.
