" Any chance the TBI from a Jeep 2.5L would work?

nope.  partsamerica says it has a 4-bolt flange vs. 2 for the carb.

" imho the likeliest prospects would be the ohc pinto mill [which
" survived into the '90s] and the pushrod taurus [?] mill cut down from
" the old falcon six.  both are in the 2.0-2.5L range.

looks like the tempo/topaz and taurus/sable are your hunting grounds.
btw the tempo carb appears to be a holley 1949 used '84-6 on fords.
