Yes there is, obviously there is no lockup clutch and the spline count is 1 different.

Thanks, should have worded it better. I was just wondering if there was a way to tell the difference.

Lockup ones are about an inch thicker than non-lockup ones.

Alright, thanks. It did end up being a 518 TC, but I found a buyer so maybe have a bit of extra cash for the right one.
