No body size on 6000t slightly bigger, I have both sizes use 6000t for longer range and continental fishing both are excellent workhorse reels 👍🏻

I'm interested in this as well, how do they compare to a Shimano 14000 size wise, which one would be similar?

6000t is a bit bigger. Retrieve is also very very slow on the 6000's compared to the 5000's.

The retrieve ratio is lower then again you have a larger spool very little in it. The spool is the same size as a million Max 9000 or Basia. It has an additional bearing compared to the 5k as well.

There's a reason why the market is limited with 5000t,6000t,SS's etc and full of shimano top reels **** retrieve the amount I blank I need to be looking at some proper reels 😎🤣
