Check and fix any vacuum leaks you can find. General era use what looks like a large SOUP can for vacuum storage which can rust, assorted hoses and connections in lots of places.
Also look right where throttle cable attaches at the throttle body and watch it's action. There's a second cable there to pull tell trans the postion of the throttle to help downshift and could make upshifts late if it's not free. If all dirty in area clean that up for a better look. These things for now for starters,
