A night and day difference!- mystery solved

[70c10]

I just picked my truck up from the tranny shop. I had my Demon carb tuned by a well known local racer recently. I had it out of whack playing with it. No more burning eyes now!. Anyway he said the lack of power (basically like riding in 3rd gear constantly) was due to the tranny not downshifting and told me to see the guy who builds his trannies. I figure if he has a 7 second car he knows his stuff. Anyway the guy at the tranny shop was real cool and it turns out the kickdown cable was broke AND it was actually too long so he put a new one on. Now with everything dialed in it's sooooooo much fun to drive!. He said I should go with a tight 2500 verter so that will probably be next on my to do list. Just though I would share my happiness today!
