The Tune in the PCM needs to be setup as an Auto, and ofcourse the Harness wired correctly. Then from there it needs to be properly tuned.

If it is setup as an Auto, then the Shift Tables need to be touched up and set right. Takes some time playing with them especially if it's an aftermarket Convertor that spins up faster. WOT Shift is probably set you're just bouncing the limiter and it needs to be brought down either the speed or the RPM.

tables have been lowered but still bouncing off limiter speed and rpm both . lap top is showing no command maybe worth mentioning that the stall is 3400 the harness is oen gm harness from a 99 trans am auto wiring is all correct all of the wiring there is zero aftermatket thats why i went oem its allot easier to switch the body harness, engine harness i feel weve been on top of everything you have mentioned .for me thats common sense but i do want all input. ive been playing with 93-02 cars since they came out ive never had this happen

Most times you will need to do a segment swap from an OS that started as an auto, or a "write entire" with an OS that was a factory auto calibration. If you get a matching OS that started as an auto, a segment swap of the transmission segment should be all that is needed other than the usual tuning. Just flipping the switch from manual to auto in a manual calibration rarely if ever actually works. There are too many background processes that will not be properly changed.

He could get a factory Auto Tune for the year PCM he has and flash that in. I've done that and it's worked.

that sounds where im leaning being it was an m6 pcm we were leaning toward missing data and that would make sense thank u

I would start over with an auto tune if it was me.
