Dont waste your time with an OFE. A buddy of mine slips his like its nothing with <500 hp. As far as pulling, are you talking about towing or sled pulling? If towing, my FE is perfect with only a little grabbing when trying to back up!

No not sled pulling, I mean just towing. I tow pretty much everyday, and its not a heavy load at all but on occasion I'll pull around 15k or so and don't want that to be a pain. I've been talkin to the guys in the 3rd gen section, and a bunch of them said you can't back a trailer with the FE unless you put it in 4lo. Then some guys mentioned the 3600 DD and said it pulls great, the pedal pressure isn't bad, and it'll handle 650+hp. So I dono what to do, but ya I think the OFE would be a waste of money either way
