My question is, can i run the awd tranny exclusively fwd by leaving off the rest of the system and transfer case and not experience any power loss? Or is some of the power always transfered to the rear wheels(non-existing in this case)?

you can use the awd transmission. the thing is you'll have to pull the transfercase output shaft out, weld up the hole for it, weld up the center diff on the awd tranny and use the awd axles. ( not so bad since you'd have equal length half-shafts then).
or you could simply hunt down the nt 7 bolt flywheel and use it since the only real difference between flywheels of the same model is the amount of mounting bolt holes.
if you get the nt flywheel expect to shell out around 200 for the new flywheel and about 300 for the nt clutch. or you could shell out around 800 and keep the awd flywheel and clutch, and do the modifications to the awd tranny to make it work in a fwd manner.
