Default mt75 vs t5 transmission?

I am needing to get rid of my t-9 transmission change the clutch and all...
curious which transmission is better? the t-5 or the mt-75?

from what I know I can get the mt-75 from the DOHC 8v motors.. I have one. I have not yet tried to mock one up to the SOHC 2.0 block yet.

I am trying to source a t-5 for a decent price localy.
I have plans on converting the driveshaft to a one piece.. makes it more simple. Not sure what driveshaft system the cosworths used. I know they used the t-5 also.

T5 cossie box is much stronger, though they are not cheap!!
cossies used a two piece prop with centre bearing supported.

did the cossie's use the guibo also? from what I know high power cars kill guibos.
guibo = rubber disk between trans and driveshaft.

Any idea what is different about the t-9 driveshaft vs the t-5 driveshafts? depending on what is different I might be able to just walk down to ford and pick up whatever parts needed for the conversion.


thanks
