Believe me I plan to keep pushing like no one's business. The "gap" didn't exist in his WPSSI and his WJIII ACH broad scores are fairly even (all within a few points) so I'm even more puzzled about whether he has a LD that has been masked by general intelligence.

We've done cognitive behavioral therapy with great success in most situations, but I can see him "shutting down" with an unknown tester. That is his fall back mode in one on one situations with new adults.
