Default Just got done rebuilding my tranny,?

Well I finished my tranny build but I went back to the stock 3-4 clutch pack,stock boost valve, I have the trans go shift kit, I do have a Question
it runs great,shifts great,down shifts good, But I notice that once you drive it for awhile i'm not sure how long prob untills it warms up when you stop at a light and take off it feels like it slips but it not because if I give it alittle more gas it start to spin my tires. it does it just alittle untill you get going about 5 or so mph kinda like the torque convertor stall.
not sure what it could be maybe my clutches have to seat or someting?
I put all new clutches,seals,bushings,

thanks

Thats a hard call, If its slipping it will get worse very fast, But though warmer temps could cause it to be more likley to slip from presure loss, I am not sure its one of those things where you would abut have to feel it to know what it is, Unfortunatly if it is indeed a slip it will make itself obviouse very quickly, If you have access to a presure guage you may want to conpare the cold line to the hot line they should be very close to the same might give you and idea if a leak or pump issue is the problem,

I will hook it up this weekend and see what my readings are psi.
its don't feel like its slipping and not moving its feel like theres a higher stall but its happens very slight at take off till about 5mph.
my pump was in good shape I put new bushings, and O-rings in the pump, the vains are good they have about 20,000 miles on them and are 13 vain.
I put a new filter in the pump reassembled, all new teflon seals,
i'm going to hook up my pc next week and psi gauge and see whats it reading.

I was getting a bump from 2-3 gear before I rebuilt it but trans go 2nd feed hole recomend .093 (in the valve body plate ) and I had the .490 boost valve. I took out the .490 boost valve and made the hole .083 it shifted good from 2-3. that was about 1-month ago so when I rebuilt it I made the 2nd feed hole back to what trans go recomend .093 and stock .470 boost valve.
it feels good now.

I would definatly check the PSI at WOT ideally it should be somewhere between 210 and 235 psi . Low line is had to check in the car to many variables , If you can make a vid OF what it does and post that can help alot in figuring it out
