Angry tranny went out

It wont shift into 3 or 4 and to get it to go into 2 I have to take it to about the rev limiter and if I give it some a$$ it comes out of gear. Anyone else have this problem. If so what was it. Thanks for any help.

The 3-4 clutch pack is burnt or has just expired. What you actually feel is normal first, normal second, and then third is first again without engine braking (overrun allowed). Fourth is really second with overrun, but I doubt you'd be able to feel it. It will feel like neutral.

You need a rebuild. There are a lot of choices for the 3-4 clutch pack. The newest option is single-sided clutches from Raybestos called the Z-PAK.

For future reference I would recommend talking to Dana at Pro-Built Automatics. They make great trannys(custom built to your specifications for current/future mods).
