I am running a 2001 Dodge 6 Speed with 75HP injectors. It weighs in at about 8500lbs (flatbed, tools, and my fat rear end). Last week i towed a 2000lb trailer with another 8000 worth of stuff and the EGTs were pegged going up hills, even driving like i have an egg under my foot and gearing my way down through the gears. I also on a couple of long pulls was outside of the normal operating temp range and finished one hill in 2nd to keep it from going way to high.
Today, i am just pulling the trailer 8500 (truck)+2000= 10500 ish and my EGT are once again at 1200 and i ease out of the throttle. So I am curious what tune wise can I improve on. I run from sea level to about 5000ft. (I am not real sure i have the timing portion set right.)

Any thoughts would be really appreciated.
