Okay, I did some searching and didn't find much in the way of an answer. I'm still dialing in my '75 and it shifts fine, I have no problems finding N rolling or stopped, but it seems like my first gear is "short." What I mean by this is from a stop I shift into first and it seems to be SCREAMING for me to put it into second but I'm not even into the power-band or even through the stop light for that matter. It just seams awful short. The rest of the gears seam fine and on the expressway it does 65/70 at about 4500rpm.
I have pod's and a 2 into one open exhaust with a "lollipop" baffle, and I'm jetted for this set up. My only problem I can think of (I'm prob. gonna get some sh%t for this) is the right hand float. It had sprung about a thousand leaks and I couldn't get it to solder without leaking somewhere Sooooo I improvised. I went into the house and ordered a new float and then (this is my only vehicle right now) popped the floats off of the "backbone" where the tang is and re-soldered on the floats from an xs400. The floats were a little smaller in circumference which I made up for with two days of adjusting the tang to get proper adjustment for gas in my bowls. Is a fuel issue anything to do with this?
This is my only real issue left, well except for the whole wrong float thing.
