Default New cam now trans prob

I have a 95z28 and I put a new cam in my car and it did great for about two months but now it doesn't take off hard like it did and it is bouncing off the rev limiter before it shifts . Now it is sliping in 2 and 3 . The fluid does not smell burnt and is nice and pink... A guy I know said it could be a I need a stall converter . Is this possible? Any help would be great thank you. Oh the cam 511/246 and I have 4.10 gears and the trans was built 20,000 miles ago with shft kit I know nothing about transmissions . The cam kicks in at 2400.

I dont know anything 'bout an auto trans either but i know my original trans kept the car moving and going to work but of my 1/4 mile times no 2 where the same. Slipping not good. Clutches are gone. Fix the trans first.

A guy I know had the same problem but after he started spraying his car. He told me put in a new converter and it fixed his problem. Hope this helped.
