I don't know what your gears are, but he probably has a 3.73 LS.
You can get a window sticker at:

Your ambient air intake is adding little (if anything) hp (maybe 5-7). Your exhaust may actually be hurting your low end torque.

Drive your truck over to my house (bring beer) and jack it up in the air. After it's in the air, break out the beer and write the VIN down.
Then we'll go inside fire up the computer and search the internet for a Ford VIN GUIDE. Then we'll look at the window sticker and see what we can figure out.
Once we're done, we'll double-check the tag on the rear differential.
Then we'll put the 12-18 beer cans in the recycle container, lower your truck back to the ground, and you can be on your way...

Look at the axle code listed on the sticker on your driver door jamb. His is likely axle code B6 (3.73 LS). Yours may be H9 (3.55 LS).

You're ruining my plan to get free beer out of this!
