The biggest concern I have is the fuel economy, However I won't be using the rig daily. I have firm belief that the 6602 is an awesome engine in many respects. I still like the option of having more than 5 forward speeds, especially back in the woods. I really want to try putting this rto14513 in a 5 ton and If I am gonna do that, mights well upgrade the engine.
As far as the transfer case sprag, the 13 speed has a reverse switch in it that could house an air valve switch of some sort, or something externally that is manually operated...haven't thought that far ahead yet.. I think I have seen some other fellas talkin' bout that in here somewhere.
