No over drive after cam swap

Just finished a cam swap on a ls1. I put in the 224r cam. While driving home I noticed that it wouldnt go into over drive. Could this be because it needs a tune?I checked the trans fluid while it was running and it's right where it should be. Any ideas??

I got a oil leak but after I fix that Im sending it to Texas speed for the ecu tune not dyno tune. Dyno tune is to exspensive for me right now. Can there tune fix this problem? Also has anyone ever set in there ecu to Texas speed and had them tune it? Thanks

hmm

i have no personal dealings with texas speeds tuning but i have never heard anyone unhappy. im 100% sure they have the know how to get you a great tune by just knowing the mods on your car (sending the cam card couldnt hurt). tuning is a routine for those pros by now, like brushing your teeth.
