a "Any final drive ratio is permitted provided it fits the stock differential/transaxle housing without modification to the housing."
b "Any limited slip or locked differential is permitted."
c "No alteration to the stock transmission gear ratios for the make, model, type, and engine size of automobile is allowed."
I "think" this means one could do any of this to a final drive, as "Any final drive ratio is permitted". I don't think you could do this to the actual gears in the transmission, though. ????

While this doesn't specifically say you can't do stuff like cryo and shotpeening, I think it brings it into the "If it doesn't say you can, you can't" category, at least when you are dealing with engine internals.
