If it seems to shift too soon or soft, you can tighten the TV cable 1 or 2 clicks & retry.
You don't want to go too far/tight & lose downshifts or upshifts coming @too high an rpm.
The 3.73 gear set you added will cause early shifts because it throws the Governor/Valvebody calibration off. Most likely will need to lighten the Gov weights or remove a spring.
Part #680 here >>
The 200C's Gov is easy to remove, unlike the 2004R, Which is in the Pan, arrg!

thanks SSedan64...it actually shifts really good for the setup I have with the gearing and the large tires. I was worried because I read too soft of shifts cause premature wear, but I'm quite pleased with it after several trial runs through different driving scenarios. It upshifts and downshifts at close to right timing, I couldn't tell what speeds because of my speedometer being so far off, but I added a gps system which shows my speed. Not sure of accuracy of it either, but guessing its closer. Anyway, I am grateful for the advice and info!
