This truck gets a workout

Ok I see there is a lot going on with the V10. I have 38000 on my 2002 with a six speed trans. the only thing that go's wrong is the power steering pump failing I run 430 gears and 33/15.50/16 tires at 2200 RPM I am gitting 15 MPG. the worst was 8 MPG that was towing 12000 Lb at 75 to 80 MPH going threw the foot hills. towing a 32 foot toy haller fully loaded up a 37 % grade is a little tuff I have to down shift to third gear and run the RPM's up to 3900 to keep up to speed. So does any one have a compleat package yet. I am checking with whipple to see if I can get a supercharger. But what headers will work best with the whipple and which muffler. Has any one gon back to old school on the pipe's. I am going to put a 11.5 cab over on this truck and still try to tow the trailer.
