There are visual differences.

The C6 and Cruiso (FX or MX in 1966, though some later literature claims the FMX was available this year, too - it wasn't) all look different.

The oil pan gasket shape is a quick identifier.

If the bellhousing is cast as part of the tranny case, it's a C6, if the bellhousing is separate, it's a Cruiso.

If the 1966 tranny case is cast iron, it's a Cruiso (bellhousing can be either iron or alum, but more likely alum in 1966). If the tranny case is alum, it's a C6.

I did just verify, the C6 was available on all 428s and some 390s, the Cruiso (dunno whether FX or MX) on some 390 and all 352s.
