My 65 RIv's ST400 is missing the VP solenoid so it is stuck in low stall. I am having it rebuilt but cant find the VP solenoid. Does anyone know a source and how does that affect my driveability?

Hey, just a thought, you may wanna have your builder switch that thing over to Non-VP. they were notorious for stripping the splines on the pump stator, and I'll bet yours are getting thin. All it takes is a complete pump, input shaft, and Valve body from a non-VP unit (pretty much anything 66 and up I think). It'd be alot stouter.
