I don't think anyone is making them for the c6z dif yet.
Most places use a C6 dif and upgrade some of the internals IIRC
Bump for another person from York, there are a few of us on here:fartpipe, and yrkz06

10-4! I have 3.90s in mine, also from RPM! Great guys to deal with. Give them a call.
CORRECTION: 3.73s. Just checked the receipt lol. All this time I thought I had 3.90s LOL. It pulls as if it had 3.90s! I'm kinda glad I don't. I cruise over 2200 rpm at 70 as it is!

As far as I know, no one makes a gear set(3.73, 3.90, 4,10, etc) for the large ring gear used in the Z06 differential. GM did produce 8 Z06's in 2006 that had 3.63 gears. Don't think they ever offered the 3.63 gear sets for sale through their parts dept.

400-450 rwhp cars are known as drivetrain breakers.... People drive them too hard trying to make them fast.
500+ rwhp cars rarely break becuase you have to finess the car to make it work.
This has come from years of working with C5/C6 drivetrain.
We have over a hundred of C6 diffs in C6 Z06 cars. I personally have a 3.90 in my Z. We have a very low number of them come back broken, and those that do know they were abusing the differential.

If your post was to contradict my post, then you are mistaken. The RPO code for the 3.42 is GU6 and the RPO for the 3.63 is GM8. In 2006, 8 Z06's were produced with the GM8 RPO. Look it up for yourself in the 2006 production numbers published by GM.
