Shifting too soon
65 Comet, 200-6, C4 transmission. At full throttle, the trans is upshifting at about 3,200 rpm. How can I make it shift higher, at say 4,500 rpm???

Kick down working?
66 Cyclone GT; 245/60R15's on 15x8's and 215/70R15's on 15x7 Magnum's.
There's nothing like the sound of a pushrod V8 singing at the top of her lung's.

Re: Shifting too soon
You can get a little higher shift point by turning the screw inside the shift modulator.
Turning clockwise = higher
Later c4's you can change to different modulators.
As mentioned before the kick down needs to be set also.
Good luck!

Re: Shifting too soon
Santa Dave is right. pull the vacuum line off & insert a small screwdriver , go about 4 turns at a time to start with.
