Sounds to me like you need to have someone log while the car is not shifting to determine why it is not shifting. Where is your rev limiter? On a stock cam car, I'd go up to 6400. Also need to find out what your WOT MPH and RPM shifting is set to in your tune. By doing that, tuning will either fix your problem or let you know that it is in the tranny.
