Jeff,

I can help.   I have several hundred feet of poly rope that was used to 
pull heavy electrical cable through buried conduit.  I don't know what the
tensile strength is but I also have a block and tackle that would have four
strands of this rope in parallel.

Come by the house and take a look if you have time.  Give me a call at
301-662-8389.

Mark
