From what I have been able to find out on the net, the TR6060 and T56 magnum internal parts are pretty much identical to each other. Unfortunately, these internals don't have anything dimensionally in common with regular T56 internals nor are compatible with a standard duty T56 case.
What sucks about the Corvette is that the rearend pinion female splines slide right over the T56 27 spline output shaft. The 6060 and magnum have 31 splines. Viper T56s use a 30 spline. Vette output shafts are unique in that they have a seal surface diameter on them just aft of the rear shaft bearing to keep trans fluid and rearend fluid separate. Reportedly, the upgraded ZO6 Vette output shafts are 32 spline. Welcome to the Corvette world.
Given the complexity of switching to a stronger T56, I bet the choice of going automatic is getting a little easier....
