Thanks for the info, Bob. So far I've not seen the need for an EB but will keep that info in mind. So far the TorqShift and 6.0 do a super job of keeping things under control. I read somewhere the 6.0 will also close down the variable-pitch vanes in the turbo to create some additional backpressure but can't find where I read that. But since we do mountains I will keep the Western Diesel product in mind, just in case I change my mind.
Thanks Steve,

I feel like I stumbled into an engineering class. I'm concerned about my Ford 350 7.3 PSD going down long hills! Should I be buying additions if I hit the Rockeys or just be careful. You know that I'm a neophyte, but an motorcyclist and sailor, so I know how to improvise. My RV experience is presently zero!
