Could be several things , valve body sticking etc. But first I would ajust the TV cable. This link should give you a good idea of how to do it , http://www.tvmadeez.com/article/index.html

Did you adjust the TV cable when you installed the transmission?

Any time you install a 700r4 you need to make sure that the cable is adjusted correctly. This cable is what controls the transmissions line pressure, shift points, and also the downshift function of the transmission. The link that Frank provided in the above post from Bowtie overdrives is one that you should read. It gives you the correct information for properly adjusting the tv cable on your car. This is the first thing that you should address on your car. I believe that your cable is either out of adjustment or is in need of replacement. You might have an internal issue but this is the first thing to address.
