Any other company offer a package upgrade for the 8.3l?

Not that I know of. Banks does still have a web page listing the mods on a 2003.. Banks Power | PowerPack

You might contact them and ask for tech support and see if they know of any options or even competitors still in the market.

I did send them an email. I will let update this thread with any info.

Make that the truck-lane/right lane, left lane is for vehicles that don't slow down for hills.
My ISC is 350hp and it slows too, doesn't overheat. A diesel engine is designed to operate at/near governed RPM without harm, some hills require manual tranny shifting to do so.
The water pump is belt-driven even though a side-radiator fan is hyd. driven, so RPM's must be kept at near the upper limit at times to increase coolant flow.

I normally don't push my MH hard on hills, easier on the drivetrain and my disposition.

You don't have to worry until you need to change down 4 more times. 3 more is ok. I dont worry about hills just go up them shifting manually and maintaining 1900-2000 on the tach.
