Question Need Help Trans Will Not Shift Into 3rd After Tuning And Installing 4k Vig Stall

Like the title says I just did my cam change to an ms4 so I bought a vigilante 4k stall from a member on here installed it and the car ran like crap because it was not tuned but it will go through the gears 1-2-3 now I just took my car to get tuned and the guy that tuned it told me he tuned it in 3rd gear D so it was working when he tuned it but I just got a chance to drive the car yesterday and when I get on it is goes 1st 2nd than it just bounces of the revlimmiter the car feel freaking strong in 1-2 but will shift into 3rd D than I try to drive it slow and still will not shift into 3rd D than I manually shift it and 1-2 when i put it in 3rd or D and it feels like its in neutral I have checked the fluid and its good not low or weird color now do you guys think is

Unfortunately the symptom is of a 3-4 clutch failure

Yes its the trans more than likely it was weak and the stall just pushed it over the edge
