Other LSD optipns

So I have read about this other LSD option that is actually very good and much lower cost, it has to do with when Daimler owned Mercedes, during this time Daimler which also owned Chrysler used some then cross platform parts on the Mercedes from Chrysler.
The part I am inquiring about is the LSD (limited slip differential) used on the Chrysler SRT vehicles, these lsd are very strong and the best part can be used on the Cl600, E55...etc
I need to know if anyone can help me with model and part numbers of the Chrysler lsd I need to be looking for.
Info appreciated thanks my friends.

"when Daimler owned Mercedes"... Daimler AG always did - and still does - own the "Mercedes-Benz" car division. The expensive Chrysler ownership experience did not last very long. A Mercedes or Chrysler dealership should be able to provide you with the LSD part number.

2002 CL500 to CL55 conversion
be weary when using chrysler parts in place of Mercedes parts. I ordered a 722.6 torque converter from ebay, the seller was under the impression the similar NAG1 tranny was the same as the 722.6 because they seemed similar. I ended up having to remove the tranny AGAIN to remove the chrysler torque converter and use a real 722.6 converter because the ebay converter did not work

So, did you get the part number for the SRT LSD, or try it out?
