Default 4l60e problem - Help!

I have a 1995 trans am with a 4l60e. It is doing something very odd that I need advice on. When I am driving the car and it starts to go into OD the car shakes and feels like I hit a rough patch on the road. It only does this when driving with restraint. When I get on it or go into OD when the rpm's are a little higher there is no signs of the shaking or rough feeling. Any of ideas?

Might be what they call convertor sudder from worn valve bores in the valve body.
