Important to note: the 7600/200 was the only 7600 model that had
matching motherboard specs to the 7500. The 120 and 132 models had
slower bus speeds than the 7500, so you should look into what was
originally in your 7600. If I were a betting man, I'd simply get a
7500 and if need be put the parts I need in to it, rather than
search for the right 7600. My 7500 runs on a 200 mHz 604e right
now, but has also run on a 200 mHz dual processor 604e.

That is a very old and very wrong line that has gone around and around.
The 7300, 7500, 7600 and 8500 all have the same spec'ed bus speed of
50MHz. The speed it runs at is dependent on the CPU. The stock 7500
had a 100MHz processor so the bus speed was half that at 50MHz. A
120MHZ CPU uses a divide by three and so the bus speed is 40MHz.
That 200MHz model uses a divide by 4 and a bus speed of 50MHz. But
all those models can use any of these processors and have the same
bus speed. That is, if you put a 200MHz processor in any of these
models the bus speed will be the same 50MHz.
