Adjusting throttle cable?

I tried doing a search and found some old threads but the site that were on there did not work anymore? I have a holley carb on a 350. My problem is that I dont think it opens all the way the the pedal is down, and it doesnt down shift when I floor it, I already tried adjusting the TV cable. I there a way to check if the throttle cable is not tight enough? Thanks

have someone mash the pedal while your under the hood to see if it opens the throttle all the way. If it does, good. If not, you have some work coming to ya!

I had the stock bracket on my car and I have a 355 with a 650 mighty demon. And the geometry was out of wack so I just bought this to correct everything.
