Might be a dumb question, but it just didn't seem like it did this before I replaced and fixed things. Maybe it's just finally healthy, but...

When it hits 2nd or 3rd gear (not sure which), it pulls really hard and RPMS get to 5 or 6k in the beginning of the gear and fall back down quickly. And it makes a short burst of sound like a loud roar, which actually sounds kinda nice. This only happens when I push it to half throttle or beyond, sometimes a little less than half.

Is this just some restored power, or are my shift points off?

 

It revs high after shift then goes back down while in the same gear?

 

Yes, Immidiately after the shift. I think I might post a video soon of the speedo and the sound of it.

 

It sounds like your RPM is going up, but the car isn't accelerating anymore. As if the car is in neutral and free-rev's then when it gets in the next gear the RPM goes to where it should be.

If this is the case, your transmission is slipping.

 

God dammit.

Can anyone tell me what the name of my tranny is so I can look into how much a new one costs? It's an auto. I think it's 700R4, but I need verification.

Thanks.

 

94-02 F-bodies had the 4L60E automatic transmission

Don't freak out too quickly, what exactly did you change/fix, that you mentioned?

 

even the v6s??

 

what, the 4L60 E? yes, v6's too

 

I restored a fair amount of power when I fixed the oil pressure sending unit, pcv valve harness, and cleaned the throttle body. The biggest gain was from the oil pressure. It started happening a little after I fixed the oil pressure. Actually, now that I think of it, sometimes when I'd pull out of a driveway, or just at a stoplight and would try to go, it would get stuck between gears, climb to mid-high rpms and then when it did shift, I would peel out. But it hasn't done that in a long time.

 

Yea that doesn't seem to be normal IMO. My guess is somethings wrong with the transmission. Sorry bro.
