Onan install... 5.5 or 6.5
I have been quoted to have an Onan 5.5 installed in my genny compartment... What are the pro's and con's of a 6.5 - vs - 5.5 ? Is the extra KW's and rpm worth the $800.00 up charge?

How many A/C units do you have, will have?
The 6500w silk give you a few more amps , if you need too run two A/C's
I would get the 6500
2 @ 15K AC's . . Not so sure we would run both all the time... My thinking is that the 6.5 may help with fuel consumption.. they are both rated the same at half load ( .8 ).. Thinking I can get more usage out of half the 6.5 load.?
