Correct. I received the same warning with both my USMC trucks, but the 1123A2 cleared in 11 days during the height of the processing delays this past summer. Somebody just posted tht their 11/29 USMC purchased just cleared yesterday, so maybe the Marines channel is actually picling up the pace.

I think the 4 speed is the most noticeable improvement. I have 6.2s that seem to run as strong as any 6.5, but a 6.5/4L80e combo is the tits. Unless you are talking about a 6.5 Turbo/4L80e :) The 10.3K chassis definitely need a little weight to smooth out the ride, so I imagine the hardtop helps.

Nope, the GEP engines differ from the GM 6.5s. From my perspective, I’d rather have a “fresh” rebuilt GM 6.5 than a worked over GEP. I also have a Melton GM 6.5 in my M1123A2 with 9 miles since a 2011 Albany reset and both A2s run strong. I also have a 1989 M998 that went through a 2007 MME...

My 1045A2 is a 2012 Barstow reset and has a Melton rebuilt 6.5. 7 miles since reset. Thus far, all the Barstow resets I have seen have Melton rebuilt engines.
