Sounds like you have some bad geometry going on or not enough cable tension. I first would try adjusting the cable so that there is just a little tension on the cable when the throttle is closed. If you don't have this adjusted properly you can actually burn up your tranny because you don't have enough hydraulic pressure on the clutches. When you adjust this you should notice that your shift points will be delayed more. Your final adjustment will be good when your tranny will downshift, when floored, from 4th to 2nd at the lowest mph that your tranny will shift into 4th.

Bowtie overdrives makes a real nice setup for the quadrajet. They make it so you can adjust how hard your tranny shifts and when it shift just from an adjustment on the belcrank and the cable.
