well I feel stupid...... really stupid, after all the bullspit about this carb, when i bought it it was "running ready to go" so i swapped the plastic pump cam arms for metal, turned on the aeromotive pump and it leaked checked good..... the freaking base gasket to carb body was the wrong one and caused the super lean condition !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! motor and all is finally back in and running like a champ, it was a bit delayed since we just had our second son on Oct. 7th, but its all back together and running amazing, except for the trans, 1st and 2nd shift great, 3rd and reverse slip alot, now i adjusted the bands per the transgo TF-2 instructions, but something isn't right I have my ATSG 727/904 rebuild book, and from what i gather all i need to do is retighten the front band, and it should be good to go, is this correct ? I mean 72in lbs on the front kickdown band is not tons of pressure,
