You seem a bit speed dominant; Others may chime in here, but if you were in my shop, I would recommend: 50* by 4" to 4 1/2" by 30*, and after watching you bowl, depending on the reaction you get, maybe alter the surface (too early hook, add polish; not enough, go to 1000 abralon or 2000 abralon). Depending on the pin distance, you most likely won't need a weight hole, but one could be placed to slightly alter the breakpoint.
I'm sure more good info will follow here. Good luck!

You are significantly speed dominant. With medium-low tilt.
We want a reaction that will transition quickly, as you have no problem clearing the fronts most of the time.
Mick is very close, I would say 45x40@4" with a P4 hole. The only reason I would dare go 45 in this case is that he is very speed dominant and needs some help getting that first transition going. Start with box surface and let us know how it rolls.
