Which XT levers for Canti’s will 739’s work?

Evening,

I’m not massively clued up on shimano groupsets, I have done some research but keep getting conflicting numbers.

If i’m running canti’s which XT levers/shifters will work best? Are 739’s suitable or are these tailored more for V-brakes?

Pretty sure that brake levers are specific to canti’s or V-brakes but was hoping someone can confirm this?

Sorry for all the questions and have a great weekend riding

If you remove the rubber spacer things in the levers (or move them to the top) doesn't this effectively make the M739 short-pull and canti compatible?

Someone will know more what I'm on about :-S
