okay the TH700R4 thanks to Willem USA cars.

Eveything went fine except for the TC. We had to use a little force to get it in place.

car drives nice, but I noticed a few things:

1. I find the throttle kind of heavy since the TV cable is connected?What is the ideal route for the TV cable?.

2. with cold engine it shifts quicker then when warmed up. When warm and with only light throttle it will rev up to 2000rpm and then shift firmly to 2nd gear. is that ok? at medium throttle with warm engine it shifts at 20 from 1 - 2, at 30 from 2-3 and 45 from 3-4.

3. 4th gear shift like butter, you almost dont notice.

4. Firs two gears are pretty firm and I notice absolutely no slip (by ear).

5. when the tv cable is at idle. the inner cable from the tv cable will stick out a little from the plastic piece that connects to the carb. I can push it back by hand, but after the next movement of the throttle linkage, it will stick out a little again at idle position. I think this is caused because the cable seems to run a little heavy through the outer cable.
