Everyone you have listed is good. My personal preference is in my RagtopWS6 signature and if I have to pick a vendor, then RPM is it.

I drove a zr1 for the first time last week the guy next door got one of the 1st one,s out. I cant believe how it drives and the shifting thur the gears... If I was going to stay with a stick car I would be doing this combo for sure. Robert

If you're talking about shipping the TR6060 and C6Z diff combo it will be atleast $1300

But if you're talking about selling my Trans to OP he lives 15mins away from me.
