Default 700r4 rebuild HELP!!!

Well after rebuilding my 700r4 for my 94 camaro several times each time doing my best to follow instructions extremely carefully, it does not slip when in gear. It goes through all the gears fine and reverse it slips correctly but when you get going you cannot stop it. I have tried three different converters and they all do the same thing. I was wondering if anyone had any idea why the trans would not allow my car to freewheel when at idle or even with 0% tps for that matter. I have tried just about everything possible and no luck so far. anyone who has a suggestion please help.

The reason for the suggestion regarding the Torque Converter Clutch valvetrain / slenoid inspection is that most likely the converter clutch is being applied at idle. That would be exactly like coming to a stop in a manual trans vehicle and not engaging the clutch.

Take a look at the TCC Valvetrain and get back to us.

You need to take the solenoid out and see if you can blow air through it.
Theres no ball between the solenoid and pump right? This was a trick some people would do to get it to automatically lock up in second with no 12v power to the trans.
Could possibly be a aftermarket tcc apply valve and spring installed by a previous owner.
