Now that you mention it though I did have a tube coming up from near the tranny that was connected to a three way valve thingy that went into my valve covers and the other part went into... the intake I think. Now that tube is just sticking up from down there.
69FE, that qoute kinda said it right there
I know what it says, I read it before I replied. Time will tell.

RE: Another shifting question. Second gear is like a kick in the ***
You might be right about the kickdown, and if the OPs statements are correct about the line not being hooked up, those of us who think that it is a modulator issue are guaranteed correct!

RE: Another shifting question. Second gear is like a kick in the ***
Not if the transmission THINKS it's in passing gear because the lever is depressed. It very well could be the modulator line but my gut (and it's a considerable gut!) says he may have also misadjusted or incorrectly connected the kick down linkage when he changed out the manifold and carburetor. Like I said, we'll see!
RE: Another shifting question. Second gear is like a kick in the ***
I'm about to go check. I couldn't last night. I'm pretty sure my kickdown is correct because we had to redo it when we redid everything saturday because we kind of took it apart lol but I'll make sure it's not sticking or stuck. but that picture my77stang put up is funny because I think we put a plug in both those holes haha.

I had another thought, will I be able to tell if there is a vacume there from the tranny before I go and crawl under the car to check where that hose goes too? pictures to come.

If I were you I would deal with the vac modulator line first, and then the kickdown if needed. Ist go after the devil you know, and then the devil you don't know!
