The search key is your friend.
Just because this is the first time you've asked this question, doesn't mean it's never been asked before. This gets asked quite frequently, probably a couple times a month.
I even believed it gets mentioned in the sticky above.

Care to share the "fix"?
I did look again in the sticky and found a hint about the VSS rpm signal but my version of TC doesn't have that constant available to try

Actually I got the upgrade to 2.11 but still don't have a lot of the constants mentioned in the sticky. Do I need the EE file upgrade to see those?

If you've searched and you've found information...have you tried it?
If you need to update your definition file from TunerCat, you do know that it is free and may be required to fix this?
I don't think anyone is going to come out and just tell you, change this...this...this...and this, and see what happens.
This has been beaten to death and quite a few of us have thrown out huge hints as to fixing this problem.
Read this.
Maybe this too.

I understand what you're saying. The whole point of this site is to share information, but I'm not going to be the one who just throws this out on the table. I just don't feel comfortable doing it for some reason. But I'm always willing to give some hints.
There was an old article in GM High Tech, I believe, that hinted that the problem stemmed from the VSS. I just kind of took it from there and have had good luck so far. I did have a problem with one car that required some more tinkering (and has been mentioned in previous posts by someone else) and eventually figured it out.
I've never come out and told someone how to fix this (and neither has anyone else on this board for as long as I can remember).
Crazy, I know...but that's the way it is with the OBDI high stall problem.

Re: 3000+ stall limp home problem
Well.I was planning on putting in a stall like that in the future, not now with the 4l60E. I know i should have had my old man rebuild a 700r4 instead. Anyone know how to hook up the line pressure cable to a 94?
Re: 3000+ stall limp home problem
Almost two years ago I and quite a few others dealt with this problem. Back then some cars didn't even have a problem with stalls over 2800. Others like mine did. Some had a fix and others didn't, There was a theory that it might have something to do with the VSS then too. BUT back then, the software didn't have the constant that deals with the VSS. I see now it does.

I remember that thread. Man that was more than two years ago! Time sure flies! I remember that I quit reading it becuse no one really had the fix for "sure" 100% all cars. Now I see the new tables in TC that weren't there back then. (2001-2002)Actually I've been giving this some thought. I got miffed because everyone that knows tries to act like it's a big secret and only lets out "hints". Well I'll look at it from another side. I guess what a good friend and one of the best tuner/ experimenters I've known says.." If you can't explain to someone why you change something in the PCM, then you shouldn't be changing it." is true. This has made me really look into what "hints" are out there and instead of asking for the "fix" straight up, I have researched more and learned a lot.
