tranny rebuild... again transmission started slipping in OD again... this is 300 miles after it was rebuilt for completely losing 3/4... which was <1000 miles after getting rebuilt for slipping in OD. any clue what the problem may be?
on the first rebuild, i got a SSF3500 and a B&M supercooler (24000) installed.
the builder says last time it ate up the 3-4 clutch packs... i'm suspecting its the same thing that happened tonight.
i just want it fixed, and would appreciate any insight into the situation...
thanks!

Before you tear into it again I would get a line pressure guage on the transmission and make sure the line pressure is being held at all times. If that checks out then I would look for a new builder.

and oh yea, forgot to mention last night, its doing two things that arent right
1)4th is slipping, and
2)the converter is locking and unlocking at highway speeds
i know its doing both because when it revs like its slipping, i can let off and sometimes the converter is locked (maintains rpm) and sometimes its unlocked (drops to idle rpm)
