WTF wont my car Shift from 2nd to 3rd & 3rd to 4th at WOT Is the Converter bad, Bad Trans? I had the car dyno tuned in February & it seemed like when he did that it wouldn't shift from 3rd to 4th, Never had a problem with the 2nd to 3rd shift until tonight when I went to the track. It just bangs the limiter..I upped the rev limiter & that didn't work either. Anyone ever have this problem?

Converters make your MPH and RPM diverge "elastically"
under load. If it was only tuning since things quit working
then I'd suspect the tune. You might need to lower your
shift MPH as much as raising RPM. More power through
converter makes the RPM run further ahead of MPH.
