so I am using the Lokar cable. Basically, I had adjusted it before so that the throttle pressure lever is almost all the way back at WOT.



That's the reason for the late shifts, you need to measure the full travel of the carb lever where the cable attaches and then measure the full travel of the transmission lever where the cable attaches; it usually won't be the same so you need to drill a new hole in the transmission lever so that the full travel of both levers is the same.

There should also be a spring pulling the transmission lever forward.
