Default Anyone running the ProRock 80?

Ok so after much deliberation and many recommendations from you all I decided against the 4BT and am leaning heavily in the direction of a 6.2 LS swap...

I am now trying to determine the timeline for my build.

I will be running the ProRock 80 in the rear and the ProRock 60 in the front....

If I schedule my motor swap 2-3 months after my initial build(axles,atlas, armor, 40's, etc.) will the 3.6 be able to handle the PR80 for those few months? I'll be running 5.13 gears....

It may be a silly question....I just don't wanna pull my jk out of the shop and break anything right away just driving down the road..

Do you really need 5.13's with a 6.2L? Asking, not telling
