The carbocations are the same, right? So they would lead to identical products?
Identical? I'm inclined to say similar, but maybe not identical. If the question were, "Do cis and trans-2-methylcyclohexanol have the same kinetics for the rate determining step?", then I think we should expect them to differ. I did a Google search (the poor man’s CAS search), and the nearest I could find was,
http://www.markedbyteachers.com/as-and-a-level/maths/dehydration-and-gas-chromatography-of-methylcyclohexanols.html. That isn't a real reference, but it suggests they will differ.
I've hinted at why they may differ by considering the kinetics of the reaction (or activation energy), but I think the formation of the carbocation will be influenced by the groups and stereochemistry nearby. If the carbocation was long-lived, then I'd expect the same products (probably from the tertiary carbocation), but otherwise maybe not. I also searched for the dehydration of the isomers of menthol which could give a single racemic mixture, but I couldn't find anything. Perhaps someone could correct my speculation by posting some real data.
