Hi BP,
According to data available on the web. The last version of the C15 was the SDP and was last produced on March 2009 for year 2010 vehicles. I've never seen one so you will need to inspect the intake system to see if its undersized. I would guess that it uses the same 5" formed SS tube between the turbo and the filter, in which case it would need to be upgraded. Also the engine was pulled from OTR production due to problems with the diesel particulate filter (DPF) regeneration system. Make sure a proper solution to the problem was installed before moving ahead with the purchase.
Regarding the ZF transmission, I think its an excellent unit with a very wide range of gearing that should serve you very well. Just spend the time necessary learning how to use it.
Good luck on your purchase.
Mike
