adjusting 727 shift duration

I remember that you can adjust the length of the short shifter linkage on the side of the trans, is it longer for more time or vise versa?

Drive your car down here to Glen Burnie, and I'll fix it for you.   :lol:

IF I understand you right, you want to delay the shifting? Moving the kick-down linkage more forward will do that. I'm talking about a horizontal rod connecting to your carb.

Thanks Guys! If i drive "normal" its perfect. But if i step on it, it winds out a little too far in first.
