Sure,
When driving under 75% or less throttle, it shifts,
but when at 100% WOT it does not want to shift, it bangs against the limiter.
probably meaning a bad trans right?

since you said "we" I assume you are just asking for the sake of asking, and not interested at all.

Sounds like the tune is off. (assuming it has been tuned for the 3.73 gears) If you have never had the tune changed to correct the speedometer and shift points, Then thats why it's not shifting. And if you have had it tuned, It may still be off just a little bit. My car did the EXACT same thing when I went from 2.73's to 3.42's til I had it retuned. Just a lil friendly suggestion to maybe help fix the car. Hope you get it figured out or sell it. It looks really nice.

I like the car, but I need the price to come down.

And why did you put camaro seats in a pontiac? Or am I reading it wrong?
