I think I may have fixed the trans problem, either by luck or just taking a  
shot in the dark.
I pulled the pan, (again, only 4th time), and looked closely at the rooster  
comb where it hits on the neutral safety switch. It wasn't dead center on it 
so  I turned the adjusting wheel until it was. Moved the shifter back and forth 
and  checked where it was on the rooster comb. Park was where it should be so 
I also  check to see where the shift valve was. Not sure exactly where it 
should be in  the valve body. 
I put the shifter in neutral and in park to see if the motor would turn  over 
and it did so I figured I was close.
I took a chance and put the pan back on, filled it with fluid again.  Started 
the car, put it in first, it went in gear, put it in second, the RPM  changed 
as well as the speedo, put it in high gear, it went in also with a big  drop 
in RPM. 
Figured I might as well take her out on the road to test it. The shift  
between 1st and 2nd was real quick without much of a RPM drop, (almost like a  
close ratio 4-speed would be), shifted into high, it shifted but with a pretty  
big lag going in.
Tried it again shifting at about 4000, did the same thing.
Not sure why there is such a big lag going into gear.
I tried moving the adjustment one more hole going the same way I moved it  
before. Didn't try it again on the road because it was getting hot again.  
(Another problem I'm having even after buying a BeCool radiator.) May have a bad  
thermostat. Running a 160 degree one.
Anyway, I'm going to try to readjust the kickdown band to see if that is  
where the lag is.
 
Thanks for all the suggestions and if someone has an idea about the 3rd  gear 
lag, I'd appreciate hearing from you.
 
Thanks guys,
Bill C.
