Thanks for all the input. checked out the kickdown cable and it didn't have any spring return to it so I ordered a new one (be here monday). I also checked out the vacuum pressure and it appears I have none at idle. Today I'm going to try hooking it up to the manifold rather than the carb spacer plate. I'll also check out the govenor to see if it might have some crud in it.

I disassembled the valve body and cleaned it out very well. I let all the parts air dry so I wouldn't get any "rag dust" inside the transmission but it is still a possibility. I guess I won't be taking it on the 400 mile trip to the campground over memorial day. Even if I get it running before then, I'd like to have a few days to test drive it before such a long trip.
