7.3 engine miss

I have a 2000 7.3 auto 2 wheel drive dually crew cab truck with 455K on the body and 200K on the replacement engine. It has a new IDM controller, main computer, and CPS. I seem to have a percieved miss when hooked to a loaded trailer, foot off of the brake, truck creeping forward with no pedal pressure. I can "feel" each pulse of the engine as the cylinders fire. Is that normal? Also, truck is hard to start when cold even in warm weather. It takes two cycles of the key without waiting for the glow plugs to heat up, to get it to start if it sits more than a few days.
