6060 is rated to 600 ft. lbs. vs. the T56 Mag's 700 ft. lbs. Being that the 6060 is OEM spec they have most likely cut some cost corners to meet OEM contract demands.

Upside to OEM is parts availability may be better. The T56 Mag parts availability is suspect from my experience. The vent line I needed was in Mexico and no where else.

Gear ratio's could be a deciding factor. I didn't see ratio specs on Tremec's website. I'm sold on close ratio compact spacing vs. wide ratio low 1st and tall 6th. The wide ratio doesn't make sense, if you're running a tall rear gear that needs a low 1st, you don't need a tall 6th. If you're running a low rear gear that needs a tall 6th then you have a worthless 1st gear.
