This unit would work great in a Power Wagon according to my calculations. They were very popular in the 70's & apparently can handle over 800hp, so I think it's safe to say it would handle virtually any P/W powerplant.
I planned on bidding on it for a project I have in mind & was considering fitting this unit between the transmission & transfercase in a FFPW. The transfercase crossmember may well need to be moved rearward to make room...I'm not sure without measuring that unit however it will be a long time before I need it so I've decided not to bid.
I think this is a very slick set-up for a Power Wagon because it's still mechanical as opossed to the electric & all too modern new units like the Gear Vendor & US Gear.
I think it would be an easy install if anyone's in mid project...I'd rather have 5.83's & this unit than 4.89's any day!
