Any luck with 700r4?
Has anyone had good luck with a "built" 700r4 Trans in a mildly built 4x4? I have a 72 blazer with a mild 355/700r4/np205 35" tires with 4.56 gears and a stock converter. Everything is all fresh and I'm having nothing but problems. I'm running a summit 600 carb with the correct brackets and the tv cable has been set at wot. At first it was shifting up and down nice but as soon as you're in the shift it was like driving through a mud pit. So I put a little more pressure on the cable and it seemed a little better but it still short shifts, and downshift before passing was extremely inconsistent (rarely worked). On my way to a buddies to set my total timing and put a pressure gauge on the Trans it didn't want to let go of 3rd so I just took it home. Most of the problems are at part throttle driving. At wot from a stop the things a beast. Is it a matter of recalibrating the governor? I've heard people love them when they're built and tuned right.
