Adjusting the shift points on a Hydramatic

I'm looking in the service manual for my Hydramatic and am a little confused. Are the shift points determaned by the govenor and throttle position. I think the shift points are too close. I'm in 4th geer by teh time I cross a large inetrsection and it seems like the truck downshifts late. I know I'm not doing myself any favors by running 28" tall tires with 410 gears but that's the way it came.
