Hi all, I'm new to this forum, I usually hang out over at Corvette Forum, but I have a question for the 200-4R experts here.
I just rebuilt and installed the 200-4R from an 83 Cadillac Fleetwood int my 75 Corvette. I've got a couple of concerns, under heavy acceleration, I get nice high shift points, but at 120 mph, under acceleration, it keeps shifting back into 3rd. Can you guys give me an idea for the fix on this?
2nd concern is light acceleration from a stop, the 1-2 shift and 2-3 shift are mushy and can barely be felt and shift into 4th is at about 35 mph. For now I just run around town with the shifter in 3rd to eliminate the 4th gear and lock up which lugs the engine at around 1000 rpm. I have the tv cable adjusted so it is tight at WOT. i installed the Gil Younger shift kit, hardened stator supportand a kevlar band, but I can tell by the 2nd gear WOT shift that I will need to change up to a larger servo, that shift is kind of long and soft, no tire screeching on that one. I appreciate any help you can offer.
