On the EFI 302 w/AOD, there is a transmission TV (throttle valve) cable at the throttle body. It is adjustable, but be very careful, this is a 26 year old plastic housing! The cable core is pulled by the throttle linkage, if you are getting late, hard shifts, you need to unlatch the clip that hold the casing and move the casing toward the lever by one notch and relatch it. DO NOT GO A LARGE AMOUNT!! To far will make it slip and ultimately burn up your transmission.

Timing, if you haven't checked it since installing the engine, yes, it should have been set as soon as you warmed it up the first time. For all who need it, TFI distributors, if you set it so that the leading edge of the shutter is just at the center of the Hall effect pickup you will be almost dead on when you check it with a light.
