No low end torque car feels slow Ok when I bought my camaro 1 year ago it was as fast as any stock z28, i've done so many things to it here is the list
LT1 radiator swapAC Delco Iridium spark plugs with Duralast wires changed oil with full synthetic and Mobile One filter Changed the fuel filter 5k milesago Cleaned themafreallygood with mafcleaner sefoamed the car clean my K&N Filter (with water only left it sitting one day) changed my coolant Installed headers,qtp ypipeand magnaflow exhaust changed o2swith corvetteone's
Not sure if im missing something but thats pretty much it
Ok, so sometimes when I drive my car well lets put it this way every morning and once in a while my car gets stuck at 40mph and the rpm guage rises likeits not going into the next gear like getting stuck but I have to press the gas pedal more so its goes into 3rd I believe (auto with2 .73) and i have to giveitmore gas to get the tranny to upshift
So would something in my tranny be wrong or something is causing this loss of power, how can I diagnose it? _

did you descreen or port your maf? if you are untuned and you port the maf ends it will give your tranny a false reading and cause it to shift shitty. if you have a programmer you can firm up the shift. This just increases the line pressure and will help you out.. Just a guess tho...

i ported my maf and unscreened it but after knowing my error i got another stock housing and installed my stock maf into the stock housing, so not sure the time I ran it ported and without a screen may have messed up my shift points
