1/2 ton or 3/4 ton towing truck?

I searched about 40 postings and did not see a clear answer, so I thought I would just ask. Can a Chev. Silverado 1500 (1/2 ton) Extended Cab with the 6.0 L gas engine handle towing my turbo on a steel trailer, or should I go with the 2500 HD series (3/4 ton) with same engine? I'm not worried about the power, but more on the truck size. I would prefer the smaller truck (1500) but don't want to compromise towing ability.

thanks

Mike
