For only 5k tons just get a Dion. Engines are expensive, if you get a SP and it takes a major crap you’ll never cut enough to cover the loss.
If you must have a SP, get a JD 6810, 6910, or 6950. The cummins is the cheapest engine out there in a SPFH. Do not, under any circumstance, get a FX New Holland.
