i have a 91 s10 with the 4.3 (OD tranny) which i converted to run off a 600 holley. it runs great. just want to make sure that i adjusted the transmission cable correctly. Any suggestions on this would be appriciated. thanks

 

if it has a TV cable, adjust until the TV cable until there is no slack, the tighter you adjust the harder it will shift

 

i wish that it was that simple, i have been studying up and it gets complecated when one strays from stock. follow the following links to see what i mean:
700R4 Info Page 1
GM TV Cable Adjustment Instructions

the shift points are exact but it doesnt really go into lower gears as it should at wot. i really just dont wanna mess up the tranny.

 

so your problem has to do with downshifting?

 

yes, everything else seems fine, shift in range (maybe a couple mph higher before shifting) with the same shifting "tone" as before. but say when i "stomp" it right when it shifs into second it doesnt down shift. any ideas?

 

well maybe the tv cable is not adjusted correctly. to put it simple you have someone push the gas down, push the release block and slide the cable back to the firewall, then one click more, release pedal and thats that. i just adjusted the one on my monte after rebuilding the trans and its on the money now.

 

holley sell the correct tv cable bracket

 

shit i didnt realize he said he was running the 600Holley. Tiffany is right, you will need the correct bracket for the Holley to adjust it properly

 

I have pretty much done all this, but can you clarify to me what you mean by one click more: my cable pulls smooth with no clicking or do you mean just add 1/32 or something after full pull?

also thanks guys for pointing out to me those brackets, I will have a good time fabbing those up

 

needless to say this whole ordeal is a new learning experience to me, not as easy to deal with as the full manual powerglide in my Monte, but still fun to broaden my knowledge.
