Trans doesn't go into gear when first start up

Have a 72 Cutlass with 350 engine and TH 350. When you first start the car
and shift the trans in doesn't go into gear . after shifting back and forth a few times it will engage and be all right. This only happens when the car has sat over night. It seems once it warms up it's OK. Fluid is full and has a shift kit installed.
Thanks,
Fred

The idle may be set to low. Mine was doing the same thing when cold, ran fine any other time.
