I had hope for quality change guess not. I have a 4600L I got from a friend and the live liner broke on the third eel. The metal on the body also corroded pretty quickly, besides that the bail and drag worked good tho.

What else could i throw on there besides a VS because that is way outa my range?

Put a 704Z on it. Best reel there is for the money (try eBay) Millions of them have been made and are in still in service. Some after 30+ years in the surf. Rise it after it gets dunked and clean the drag washers and you are set for a lot of years.
No boat, back in the suds.

Shimano Spheros 8000.

No other reel to consider.

IMHO, that reel is too small for that rod.
