My '73 also has a 2 to 3 problem. At moderate throttle the shift takes a 
relatively long time and the engine will speed up excessively during this time. 
Under hard throttle this doesn't happen.

Is this what you expereince?

The AT changed in '72, so mine is somewhat different from yours. I think the 
differences are only minor, but I really don't know. The VM, valve body, and 
governor changed.

The early ATs which I've had have always been fine.
