Tranny:
if the TH-400 is causing problems you can also bolt up a TH-350 or 200r4. these latter two are not only lighter than a TH-400, they also have quite a bit less rotating mass. great for accelleration.
you do give up some durability in stock form but either can be built to hold 600hp. the 200 will also give you overdrive AND a shorter first gear.
Distributor:
the 350 and 455 use the same distributor, you just need to swap the drive gear at the bottom of the distributor shaft. so if you've still got the 350 sitting around you can cannibalize the distro off of it and it won't cost you anything.
The way to crush the bourgeoisie is to grind them between the millstones of taxation and inflation.
