To date a gearbox with only numbers and no letters in the code, go here:
Hot, humid air is less dense than cooler, drier air. This can allow a golf ball to fly through the air with greater ease, as there won't be as much resistance on the ball.

There's no letter code stamped into older transmissions, but #8074135 would've been a 1965 model. Better than say, a 1962, but not a very strong box. I'd put the effort into finding a good `67/`68 trans and swapping the axles.
If staying 6V there's an adapter sleeve that'll allow you to run a 6V starter in a 12V trans but I don't recommend them. Better to have the starter pinion shaft turned down to the "12V" diameter.
Anyone have info on these non letter coded trannies?
