Hello. I'm new to the list. I have a 1973 Fastback Automaticthat I 
just re-built the engine for, as well as installing dual carbs (32 
pdsit). After I got the engine in, running and tuned-up, I test drove it 
and found it wouldn't shift out of first gear until nearly 30mph!  

Did you connect up the vacuum modulator? Without this 
connection, the AT doesn't have all the info it needs to know when 
to shift. You may need to search out a different one and then make 
a fitting to connect it to the dual carb balance pipe.
