Send the Benjamins to Mac 1 and the 1322 to Roy at Mountain Air Custom Airguns. Roy might do the Benjamins as well? Mac 1 can be hit an miss. Tim does great work, but can be temperamental.

Sadly NOT my forte doing the pneumatics and co2 pistols.
In the Crosman / Benjamin world it's M-rods and the PCP pistols only.

Tim at Mac 1if you can wait and deal with him w/o pissing him off

If you are handy, you can order up a flat top valve and install it yourself for MoPower. Alchemy sells parts.
If you aren't handy, what do you want done/expect out of your modded pumpers as I can do the work. Fairly quick turn around after parts needed arrive.
BTW: I don't get P O'd as I don't do this as a living, just for the betterment of our sport, I'll make a few $$ for my time, but nothing exorbitant.

I am handy, but it's with fly tying. Hahaha
I appreciate that very much, I will try the 1322 myself....the blue streaks are gonna have to get sent out, they are both TIRED!!! The one is my childhood gun, I am 40 soooo yeah. The other was a impulse buy, no idea what can be done to these, but I'm from Murica...and we like power here.lol

I very much value your help here!

We're here to give a hand should you start with the 1322. Eeeaasssy to work on, lots of upgrade parts mild to wild.
The Sheridans need a spanner tool made to remove the valve though, sending it out to someone will be best. Just O rings and a new poppit and it's pretty much resealed unless, and highly unlikely, the tube is damaged by corrosion.

Well see, there you go...the 1322 isn't a co2, so you should be good to go...

MAC1 will not waste your money
Just received BACK a 392 and its a blast(literally) to run with stock sights
But a scope is on order

Tim at Mac1 is generally known as the "go to" for the Streaks. He can do a basic reseal or you can opt for the "steroid treatment" which increases power and allows higher pumping. His turn around time can be longer at times but his work is top notch.

As others have said, the 13xx guns have a HUGE amount of aftermarket support and the platform is extremely easy to work on. Few hours of research and you'll find more info than you can imagine!

Hope this helps and be sure to keep a good record of your work so you can post a thread for us all to share in your tinkering!!!
