There is very little difference between the cases.  You will need one 
FI head, however.  The left FI head has a threaded boss for the 
cylinder head temp sensor.  The carbed engines did not have this.

The T prefix is part of the Engine Number and simply designates the 
type and serial # of the engine as it was built up at the factory.  
It is not the case part number.
