the vac reg/modulator valve doesn't affect shift points so much as it does Firmness of said shifts. Adjusting the linkage has more to do w/ shift points. Check your throttle cable/alignment of your linkage.

You don't Need MB synthetic in a .3.. conventional is fine.

For cars that I drive Harder I use B&M trick shift synthetic. Makes for a very Positive shift!
