I would start by checkign the fluid, the car will shift funny with low tranny fluid. Happen to me after the converter install but it didn't really feel like it was slipping. Hopefully it's something simple, my tranny is done too, that 2-3 lag wasn't so much a tuning issue.

i was having the same 2-3 issue with my car, it wouldnt happen all the time but that one run it would hang up on the rev limiter for a good 2-3 seconds then shift. I hope its just low tranny fluid, if not o well time for a built tranny and a serious stall

Yep, that's exacly what my car was doing the day you where at NED. It would come and go, I finally decided to spray throught the shifts last month and now the problem is definatly here to stay. If it's toast shoot (Marc) 1st And Goal an email. He found a really good shop to build his, I think that the shop is in CT.
