Hey Morgan, Yes, flashing can compensate for underexposure and lack of shadow details https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flashing_%28cinematography%29
There's also a good explanation of the process in the book Film Technology in Post Production. Might not be worth the effort this time, but something to consider. Stock solution refers to the non-diluted chemistry, with D-76 it's (most often) used as 1:1 developer to water ratio. In general terms reversal processing requires higher contrast, so using 2:1 developer to water or just the stock would yield higher contrast, but if you go this route I would do some tests first.
