It will run out packs faster, maybe a minute or two less than your 13.5. Have run an 8.5 in a stadium truck on 4000's on a huge track and just made 10 minutes with it - it was down to 25%. The 5000 pack should have no problem.
I wouldn't go too far down on the gearing, it seems like [in general] undergearing heats up the speedo, overgearing heats the motor
