Well other than laying down more rubber on a 0-60 test, my seat of the pants didn't feel any change in power with the 275's



Even hauled a load of hay and couldn't tell any difference.



Then I remembered a straight stretch going up the Big Horns that with the camper loaded and the EZ she would hit 70mph. Well after I loaded the camper for my trip I went up and tried it. We had just passed 80mph when the boost hose blew off the gauge. Startled me and I left off of it but I can definately see that more power is there.



Noticed as I turned around that the transmission had hit 200 degrees. Thats a first. On the way up I had tried on the switch backs to make the TC slip in third locked up and couldn't.



So much for testing. I quit before I break it. Except for mileage. I'll report on that when I get back from our trip.
 
I have a setup very similar to yours. I just finished the injector install last week and haven't had a chance to pull with it yet. Later this week I will be dragging a 36' cattle trailer so that should give it a workout. I just hope my stock clutch holds out for a while. I hope the Ford and Chevy boys don't run off and leave me. :D
