Greg,

I have new 90/10 shocks on my Valiant if you want to try them? Just let me know and I can pull them off and bring them to the track.

Do you have a manual valve body in the trans?

If so put it in 3rd gear and stall it, That will tell you what your real stall is.

I will try That.

4.56 should be fine. I think the low 1st gear will help also, You can find them in the later lock up transmissions or maybe ebay.
