Caveats and conflicts (5)

CTS-V used the Tremec T-56.
CORRECTION: existing column says Tremec TR-3160. Tremec lists TR-3160 as 2013-present and its Camaro entry starts at 2016.
Wikipedia gives no engine or year split; AY6 on V6 and TR-6060 on V8 is the usual pairing. 2014-2015 not confirmed.
Toyota-side code (possibly RA60 family) not confirmed. Single Wikipedia article, tagged as one-source.
Tacoma World reply names Toyota codes RA60 (2WD, 1GR-FE) and RA60F (4WD). 2.7L 4-cyl Tacomas had a 5-speed.
