The only advice I have, is that if you are going to go with a toploader, and you think at some point in the future you may change to an overdrive tranny, I'd make sure the frame/crossmember is done correctly now, if needed, to accommodate any future tranny swap.

If you are going to buy a new/ rebuilt toploader, I'd go with david kee.
Good advice and I can tell you the ERA 427 has an "adapter" that bolts in to accommodate a Toploader. It isn't installed if you use one of the Tremecs. It would come with the car if you told Peter you were going to install a Toploader.

I actually swapped 755 from a Toploader to a TKO 600. It was very simple.
