Your answers mean that the LAN-type GigE on the 7600 series is probably not what you want. Some of those cards are oversubscribed (IE, there are 24 GigE ports handled by 2 10-gig ASICs.) and they don't do shaping.
While it's very new, the ES20 20-port GigE blade for the 7600 I think is the cheapest option to get what you want, unless you need IPV6/mVPN/ 4364VPN support, which adds to the cost via a license. The GSR is probably a more mature platform to do what you want, but it's going to be more expensive.
