904 early shifts

Charrlie_S, I don't have a kickdown rod. I am using a lokar or bouchilon cable system. I haven't had any trouble out of the cable since install, I went and double checked the adjustment on it and it is fully engaged at wot, I just think it's tired and going from a 318 to a 360 probably is putting a little to much stress on those 30 year old parts. I should really look into a rebuild or replacement options. At least then I would know the history on the tranny. Thanks for the help too! You and 66dart. I am also going to find a diagnostic check as 66dartman suggested, I believe I have one in my chilton's.
