Cool, the 7.3's a proven motor, I think you'll be very happy with it.
Take Bruce's advise and put in gauges if you haven't already, pyro, boost, and trans temp (especially if your going to pull that 39 footer)  The 4r100 tranny is the weak link in the 7.3 PSD drivetrain but if you watch the temps it should be fine. I upgraded transmission pan and installed a temp gauge, so far no issues. I'm changing over to synthetic tranny fluid at the 60k checkup to be on the safe side.
