I should think that all OM shutters are essentially of the same design. 
  They're all horizontally traveling cloth focal plane shutters with a 
1/60 second maximum flash sync speed.  I'm sure there are detail 
differences between them (like maybe plastic bits in the double digit 
bodies) and a stronger spring in the 4T to get 1/2000.  And everything 
besides the 1 and 3 have have electronic timing.  But I don't think 
there's anything fundamentally different in the design of any of them.
