Re: tranny adjustment
Clockwise to shift later. It will only change the shift points 3 or 4 mph.

Re: tranny adjustment
Pull the govenor out and lighten the flyweights by removing metal from them either by grinding or drilling, be sure to take equal amounts from each to keep them reasonably balanced. It's trial and error but you can fine tune it to your liking.
