Real nice truck.  Thinking about doing the same thing, including color, except going with a SRW version.  Curious as to the fuel numbers you get when you finally get the TC on and start enjoying it.
On a side note, was wondering how close the brochure was to actual numbers.  Brochures show it should have a 5,800# payload (assuming it came with the 68RE). 
Your numbers show 14000 - 8460 give it a 5540# payload.  So you lost 260# due to factory options.  Pretty close numbers for the brochure.
Figuring the same loss for SRW, a 12,300 GVWR shows a 4,630# payload meaning it should net about 4,370# actual capacity.
Yes I do have the 6 speed auto not the Aisin.
