Default what are common symptoms of a bad stall

Corvette related, I recently replaced mt complete rear with a 3.42 Z06 rear. since then I have nothing but problems. AA buddy of mine retuned the car with EFI Live and seems to think the stall might be bad. Here are some of my issues.

Tranny runs hot 220+ with a tranny cooler added
At freeway speeds the stall does not lock and hovers around 70 (whatever that number is in EFI)
Just yesterday I noticed that at 5K rpm up the tranny is slipping.
When freeway driving between 55-80 the car will hunt for gears randomly??

Does all this sound stall related or could I just have a really bad tune? The tranny was perfect before the conversion. Thanks for any info you have.

Stall is a Yank Stealth 3000 and when I 'flash" it or floor it so to speak it does not seem to just lock at 3K like I thought. It is more like stock.

Ok I am a little confused you replaced the rear end and the converter or just the rear end?
What was the ratio of the original rear end?
Was the converter purchased to go with that ratio rear end?

Sorry about that. I replaced the complete rear end and went from 3.15 gearing to 3.42 gearing. EFi Live was adjusted for the new gears. While I was back there I also pulled the tranny and had the Yank installed as well.
