I've been told, that towing heavy in OD is really dependent on TV cable position, meaning if your going to tow a heavy load in OD, dont lug it, high TQ with little TV cable position is going to give less line pressure to the OD pack....do the math

That is quite possible about the tv cable, but mine is driven by a motor. I think it depends on valvebody build as well.

The last time I towed the Camaro to the track I ran 85mph the whole way. If it's hungry let it eat.

I tow a 29' TT mostly in OD without issue. We do drop down when elevation changes too much and truck starts to lug without alot of throttle input.
