Default will it fit

I am not sure, but I believe the case for the c-6 is different, I know it mounts different . I dont know if the guts are the same. I looked at one at a local show and the case has better mounting tabs,,,,

Hope you don't mind my asking, but why would anyone want to exchange the differential in a C6 with one from a C5?

My guess is someone who is going to upgrade a C5 with a new gear set then looks into purchasing a C6 down the road..
