Default 07 C6 rear?

I have a 07 C6 what if any improvements did they make from 06's. I heard that the 07 C6's use the Z06 C6 rear is this true? has anyone broke a 07 rear without hop ? and finally are 390's or 410's available for the 07 rears?

Not sure they changed anything. But did see a 07 at the drag strip (I was right behind him ready to stage) and he dropped the clutch on the green light and puked the rearend all over the start line, it was ugly.
