The 6.5 and 6.2 are good engines for what they were put out there for, just don't expect alot of speed out of it. My new to me truck I'm gathering parts for will be a 86 crew dually with the cummins and a nv4500.

Nice set up!! I agree, if you go manual transmission, the NV4500 is bulletproof. You could probably drop a stick of dynamite in it and it would still work. Lol... ok, so maybe not THAT strong. But I have a second set up that will be a 6.2 in front of an NV4500. Love that transmission...
