I think the main body is the same as the w-900? the cab has to be metal and not fiberglass to make it work. The new cat is a 625hp but you can't get an ultrashift with that much power. the c-13 470 is the largest engine torque wise you can get. If you use a normal manual trans then you can use whatever you want
KW will build a 600 Cat with an 18 AutoShift, has a clutch pedal to stop and start, otherwise automatic operation.
A C15 big block Cat is available with a 13 Ultrashift. Has to be max 475hp and max 1650 torque.
CHUB, my email is my screen name at msn.com, thanks.

with an autoshift you still have a clutch pedal but you only use it to take off. once you are moving computer solenoids shift your trans for you.. If the trans solenoids ever crap out bad enough you can lift the top plate off the trans and replace it with a normal one like you already have.
