Default Local differential builders? (for c5/c6)

Are there any local rear differential builders that any of you guys have used or heard of? I'm looking into swapping gears and/or building my current c5z diff. With today's exchange rate, I'm trying to stay away from US shops.

I know the c5/c6 diff's are a little more complicated to change the ring and pinion gears so I'm not sure if all differential shops can do it or not?

Thanks for any help

Default Rebuild

Just had my complete rear end removed and rebuilt, replaced posi clutches, and all internal bearings, installed a composite spring, replaced all the 51 year old bushings with polyurethane and installed QA 1 shocks. Everything blasted and repainted.

All work completed on the bench at Redline Firestone @ Sheppard and McCowan Rd. Have been dealing with these folks for 25 years. They know their stuff.

I have had work done on my WS6 at Champion for many years with no problems. Rob has a great shop and great people that do great work. He will be seeing my Vette this spring and I have all the confidence that the job will be done correctly and on time.
