No they wont. The yolk were the tailshaft connects to the diff is different. If i remember correctly, EA is different from EB-ED, and was changed yet again for the EF-EL...

(edit: ah damo you bet me :P)

You sure man, I have an EB tailshaft here and i don't think it mates to the EF diff, it has four bolts while the EF has like 8 of them or so. (unless four of the eight holes align to the EB yolk, never tried).
