Oh, and I assume that the different variants all use the same housing, shaft design, bearing support locations, etc., so what (besides ratios) really changes depending on application? Do they use higher grade steel for the higher hp cars?
No, they all have the same internal parts.. Although I'm not sure on the ZR1 varient (but I do know it has special ratios).

Since the TR6060 uses a remote shifter system that's the biggest change.. and of course there would be differences base on whether the target car is IRS or live axle.

I have the aftermarket version (called a T56 Magnum) in my orange '68 Camaro. The big diff there is that it has a direct (more traditional) shifter, but the internals are identical to the OEM version.

I will ask them next week about differences in internals.. but I'm pretty sure they are the same from a strength standpoint.
