That is the only difference I know of... metal bushings instead of rubber ones where the shifter housing mounts to the tunnel.
Other than that:

Obviously, I'm *real* happy with mine. FWIW, one of the reasons it works so well for me is that I also did the "shift bolt mod" to the tranny to further reduce the resistance felt when moving through the "gates" between gears.

The C6 shift **** feels better in my hand than the stock C5's, too. Price is right ($180?? from Fred Beans).
