Sorry, forgot about the Loose term.
The smaller the converter diameter, the higher it will stall. The term loose and tight are very interesting in the converter world. Sometimes it can just refer to the stall, meaning a 3500 stall converter is looser than a 3000. It can also refer to how well a converter drives. Meaning a 3000 stall converter that is very tight, so it drives almost like a stock converter. It does not take much throttle to get the vehicle moving at low speeds. Basically the same throttle pressure required as the OE.

Or is the 278mm strong enough under a cammed, tuned, etc. 6.0?

I had to look up "jonesin". I have never heard that term before. I found this from Urban Dictionary:
jonesing - to have a strong need, desire, or craving for something.

You're right, what am I going to do when I outgrow the 6.0...I'm already daydreaming about superchargers (my Trucker cam would be awesome with a Maggie 
but then I think I'd have to go for an FLT 80E...one trans at a time lol ). My 3 year old daughter will be in college by the time I save up for that...gotta hit the lottery...anyway, back on topic...Circle-D's new website rocks
I visit it all the time and dream about my 258mm triple disc
