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?

It would help if you post the exact models...
According to my manual, the 5.5 and 6.5 have the same engine, but with different gearing. The generator runs at 3600, but the engine runs 2400 for the one and 2800 for the other IIRC.
If I were shopping fuel injection would be a bigger differentiator than 1 kW.
