Default HT3B vs s400 twins kits

Stock/HT3B Twin kit w/turbo
Stock/s400 Twin kit w/turbo

My buddy is trying to convince me to get twins because of all the towing I do. I pull a 10k horse trailer and a flatbed that I usually have at around 12k+ (have had it upto 20k). I found these two kits online. Both are affordable but I will have to save to get them. There is a $100 difference in the two kits. Which kit would be better with my current setup and what size injectors should I go to? Also will I need head studs to run this?

a set of compounds would make the thing tow a lot nicer. Yes get yourself a set of head studs. I would go with 150hp injectors and not a set of jammers. I would go the s400 route.

My next purchase I had planned was a set of 110 DDPs. But I will go with the 150s to run the twins. Can I stay with my hybrid for this setup?

I talked to the company, I can get a 71 or 75 s400 in the kit.

The K31 works great for a set of Towing Twins.
