Doug,
I am running a (previously) 4-stud case from a Mk1 which is the same as a GT6 
diff with 4.11 gears and a Quaife LSD in Tiny Tim.  Yes it all fits.  I
had the case modified to add the other two holes and now has 6 studs.  I also 
added an oil drain at the bottom for ease of service.

The Quaife only works on diffs with the large output shafts.  That includes all 
GT6, Spit MK4 and 1500 units and I understand some Mk3 diffs but I
can't say from experience if the Mk3 will accept it.

Regards,
Joe
