I think that the f-600 will have a much lager input shaft, also the 600 may not have a rear mount on the tail shaft.

Re: trans..???
the bellhousings are different. and i think you have to use the f600 bell with the f 600 transmission becasue you may also have to use the f600 flywhel . i dont think you want to mess with it.

Check the synchronizers and the small teeth on the gears.
I have also seen worn main bearings in an engine make a transmission jump out of high gear.
