    Should pull strong!
    I pulled our new 310GK back from Tx to MT with a 2000 F350 SRW Super cab 7.3L diesel with 3:73. It pushed the limits of our truck and decided to upgrade to a 2021 F350 DRW 6.7L.

    As with any tow unit, do not exceed the speed rating for your weakest tire points, that is, the trailer tires.

    Ford developed the 7.3 Godzilla engine to be an alternative to the 6.7 diesel. It doesn't have the same torque as the diesel, but should pull almost as well, except in extreme conditions. The advantage you get is that the 7.3 weighs 700-800 pounds less than the 6.7, which goes directly into your payload availability, and payload is almost always the limiting factor when putting a 310GK behind a SWR.

    It should be a good-set up for you.
