You're welcome.

Both TTL and LSTTL (but not STTL or HTTL) will work with an appropriate 
pulldown resistor.  LSTTL is recommended for the lower power and improved 
speed over TTL.  The pulldowns are necessary to guarantee logic zeros when 
driven by the original CTuL or newer 75121 parts, which have open-emitter 
outputs.

Section 5-7, "Computer Backplane Assembly Requirements," of the 
aforementioned interfacing manual details the recommended circuits.
