I know its a cost cutting measure, but leaving only a 10 lb ft. torque difference in the specifications?
I'm sorry but you are wrong.. the Camaros have the 700-lb rated trans.. the same as is in the GT-500 Mustang, Vette, and very similar to the ZR1 version.

Don't get your tech from any Wiki page.. it's only as good as the person writing it. lol

I have two TR-6060 varients in my shop and I'm currently working with Tremec on a tech story explaining the difference between the TR-6060 (T56 Magnum) and the T56...

Being rated in the 400s is nonsense and the person that wrote that isn't very well informed.
