Default slipping around 85ishMPH?

Okay so I finally got around to getting on the car after my 12 bolt install.

I noticed this a week ago and thought it was strange. So the other day After work I go on it WOT from a roll around 30mph...shifts great untill around 85mph at 5800rpm it starts to rev up?? So i just get out of it and its fine?

I did just adjust mt TCC lockups to match the same ones in my buddies 383LT1 with 3600 Stall with the same Built tranny....mine is a 355ci 3000 stall.

Could this Myabe have to do with changing all of my TCC lockup charts?

For normal driving and medium like 3-3500 shifts its no problem 1-2,2-3,3-4

Shift points are set at

1-2....6050rpm
2-3....6050rpm
3-4....6000rpm

Any ideas? Maybe change my TCC lockups back and try again?

Jay

I would make sure my fluid levels are at the top of the cross hatch

well i did get it flushed a couple months ago and if anything it my be a bit high...I pulled the dipstick to check the colour and noticed it ran up the dipstick all the way...would too much fluid cause this issue? And I recall they over filled it and had to take some out.

To much fluid can cause foaming and have similar effects as to little fluid
